INL makes first fuel for Molten Chloride Reactor Experiment
Idaho National Laboratory has announced the creation of the first batch of enriched uranium chloride fuel salt for the Molten Chloride Reactor Experiment (MCRE). INL said that its fuel production team delivered the first fuel salt batch at the end of September, and it intends to produce four additional batches by March 2026. MCRE will require a total of 72–75 batches of fuel salt for the reactor to go critical.

Differential neutron scattering cross sections from 6Li and 7Li had been measured at some energies between 6.82 and 9.80 MeV. The experimental technique and problems of data determination are discussed. Furthermore, a comparison with other experimental results in the incident energy region from 6 to 14 MeV is presented. Some remarks are given concerning deviations in the experimental results obtained by different groups.
