Launching into tomorrow: NRIC guides new era of research and deployment
In June 2025, the Department of Energy announced the Reactor Pilot Program, an authorization pathway that allowed reactor developers to partner with the DOE to get first-of-a-kind (FOAK) reactors built and tested. Soon after, the DOE rolled out a complementary Fuel Line Pilot Program, which aimed to fast-track fuel projects. In all, 20 projects were accepted into the new programs.
We develop software for accurately, efficiently, and easily predicting radiation fields. Our Attila® and Attila4MCTM products are used worldwide for shielding, radiological protection, and a myriad of other scenarios where radiation effects play an important role in product or system performance, safety, or reliability. Our mission focuses around delivering state-of-the-art software leveraging both Monte Carlo and deterministic methods, and combining with robust CAD integration, to help organizations efficiently integrate radiation transport simulations into their design cycle.
