DOE selects first companies for nuclear launch pad
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy and the National Reactor Innovation Center have announced their first selections for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad: three companies developing microreactors and one developing fuel supply.
The four companies—Deployable Energy, General Matter, NuCube Energy, and Radiant Industries—were selected from the initial pool of Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program applicants, the two precursor programs to the launch pad.

The transport of monoenergetic neutrons in slabs and spheres with vacuum boundary conditions is studied. Isotropic scattering is assumed. The connection between the eigenvalues arising from the time-dependent and the stationary transport equation is established. Based on this, numerical values for the fundamental and higher order time eigenvalues are given. Finally, the more complicated case of anisotropic scattering is discussed.
