Second round of Launch Pad selections includes eight newcomers
The National Reactor Innovation Center at Idaho National Laboratory has announced 13 project selections across 12 companies for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad, a Department of Energy–led program that integrates reactor and fuel facility authorization, testing, and deployment support for private nuclear developers.
The Launch Pad emerged from the Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program.
According to INL, projects selected include reactor development and nuclear fuel cycle advancements, including fabrication, enrichment, and conversion technologies.

For diagnostics of confined and escaping particles in burning plasma, we have proposed to apply the measurements of the gamma rays from D(,)6Li and 19F(,n)22Na nuclear reactions and verified the validity to the diagnostics by accelerator experiments. From our experiments, we obtained the properties of the emitted gamma rays and some prospects for the diagnostics on ITER-like plasma based on their measurements. This paper discusses the spectrum properties of the emitted gamma rays and their applications to particles diagnostics.
