DOE, General Matter team up for new fuel mission at Hanford
The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management (EM) on Tuesday announced a partnership with California-based nuclear fuel company General Matter for the potential use of the long-idle Fuels and Materials Examination Facility (FMEF) at the Hanford Site in Washington state.
According to the announcement, the DOE and General Matter have signed a lease to explore the FMEF's potential to be used for advanced nuclear fuel cycle technologies and materials, in part to help satisfy the predicted future requirements of artificial intelligence.

Articles are hosted by Taylor and Francis Online.
The Wilkins equation for 1/v capture and with a constant leakage term is studied. The solution regular at the origin and its asymptotic behavior are discussed. Series expansions for the joining factors are given and the corresponding eigenvalue problem is studied. Finally, tabulations of the functions are presented for values of the parameters that are of practical interest.
