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.

Heat of transports Q* of hydrogen isotopes in the α-phase of Zr have been measured in temperature regions from 623K to 673K for H and from 523K to 623K for T by analysing the redistribution process under a thermal gradient. An isotope mass dependence of Q* has not been unequivocally established though a tendency that Q*(H)>Q*(T) has been observed. These data have been discussed on the basis of the biased-jump diffusion model, and a large negative bias effect has been pointed out as characteristics of Q* of hydrogen isotopes in group-IV metals in comparison with the case of group-V metals.
