American Centrifuge Operating, a subsidiary of Centrus Energy Corp., has formed a multiyear strategic collaboration with Fluor Corporation in which Fluor will serve as the engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) contractor for Centrus’s expansion of its uranium enrichment facility in Piketon, Ohio. Fluor will lead the engineering and design aspects of the American Centrifuge Plant’s expansion, manage the supply chain and procurement of key materials and services, oversee construction at the site, and support the commissioning of new capacity.

Neutron scattering cross sections were measured for 14N and 9Be at incident neutron energies of 11, 14, and 17 MeV using time-of-flight methods. Angular distributions for 14N and 9Be elastic scattering and 9Be inelastic scattering to the 2.429-MeV excited state were obtained between 20 and 160 deg in 5-deg increments. The data were corrected for finite geometry effects using a Monte Carlo simulation code. Legendre polynomial coefficients deduced by fitting the experimental data are tabulated. The results of a spherical optical model analysis for the 14N data are reported. Coulomb correction terms are obtained from a comparison of neutron and proton elastic scattering data for 14N.
