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.”

Effects of ion and electron bounce motions on ICRF (Ion Cyclotron Range of Frequency) heating mechanism in simple mirror discharge are investigated theoretically. As a preliminary study, we consider a one-dimensional model in which propagating R (Right-handed circularly polarized) and L (Left-handed circularly polarized) waves interact with mirror-trapped ions and electrons. The results show that ion bounce resonance effect with L-wave can occur under the condition that ωci < ω.
