North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

A method to ensure increased radial losses for a selected population of particles from an axially symmetric magnetic trap is described. The method is based on the resonance action of a rotating perturbation magnetic field on the particles. The possible mechanisms and properties of the transverse transfer of particles in this case are discussed. The numerical investigations made with a one-particle approximation allow estimation of the efficiency of the proposed method of pumping. The ion pumping from the thermal barrier of a tandem mirror fusion reactor is considered as an example.
