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.

On April 26, 1989, the Frascati Research Centre reported the emission of >5000 n/s over many hours from a titanium-deuterium system during changes of temperature and pressure. It was attempted to reproduce these observations using a highly sensitive (10%) thermal neutron monitor and two differently degassed titanium samples. During the 20-day experimental period, the neutron emission from these titanium-deuterium systems never exceeded 1.7 (first 8 days) and 0.6 n/s (last 12 days), averaged over 100-min intervals.
