DOE selects first companies for nuclear launch pad
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy and the National Reactor Innovation Center have announced their first selections for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad: three companies developing microreactors and one developing fuel supply.
The four companies—Deployable Energy, General Matter, NuCube Energy, and Radiant Industries—were selected from the initial pool of Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program applicants, the two precursor programs to the launch pad.

Muons, Inc. was formed two decades ago by scientists from national labs to develop a muon collider, the next "atom smasher" to follow the Large Hadron Collider, Since then, Muons has supported 18 postdocs and 7 Ph.D. candidates under DOE contracts and SBIR-STTR grants to develop new technologies and applications for particle accelerators. We are enthusiastic proponents of superconducting rf proton accelerators to drive subcritical molten-salt reactors to deal with the spent fuel from nuclear reactors using a concept called Mu*STAR. We have applied for the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program ARC-20 to develop a Mu*STAR Conceptual Design Report over the next three years and are looking for people to join us in this adventure.
