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.

A neutron spectrometry system is proposed to provide information about the ion plasma temperature profiles in the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) cross section. The system consists of two fanlike arrays of spectrometers and collimators positioned horizontally (20 channels) and vertically to the machine (10 channels). The devices are intended for use in both the deuterium-deuterium (D-D) (physical) and deuterium-tritium (technology) phases of ITER operation. For the D-D phase of operation, a system using NE-213 liquid scintillators and a 3He ionization chamber is proposed. A new high-performance neutron spectrometer based on recoil-proton energy measurements by means of a semiconductor detector and neutron spectrum unfolding is proposed for the technology phase.
