Oklo continues plutonium fuel development with LANL and Nvidia partnership
Oklo announced a new partnership with Los Alamos National Laboratory and Nvidia to perform AI-enabled research on nuclear infrastructure and fuel.
The partnership is focused on exploring plutonium-bearing fuels, including the development of science-based AI models to support fuel validation and materials science and fabrication research and development. The team will also be exploring the development of nuclear-powered AI computing centers at LANL.

The new method of Case for treating the one-velocity transport equation is applied to a uniform, one-dimensional multiplying medium. The method leads to exact expressions for the neutron distribution and criticality conditions. These expressions depend on expansion coefficients which are shown to satisfy a Fredholm integral equation. The results of diffusion theory with the exact Milne problem extrapolation distance are shown to correspond to the zeroth-order approximation of the Neumann series solution to the Fredholm equation.
