Here is a recap of recent industry happenings:
Supply chain contract signed for Aurora
Oklo, the California-based developer of the Aurora Powerhouse sodium-cooled fast-neutron reactor, has signed a contract with Siemens Energy that is meant to de-risk supply chain and production timeline challenges for Oklo. Under the terms, Siemens will design and deliver the power conversion system for the Powerhouse, which is to be deployed at Idaho National Laboratory.

Triton angular distributions and forward-to-backward emission ratios for the 6Li(n,t)4He reaction were measured in the incident neutron energy range from 10 eV to 325 keV using pulsed white-spectrum neutrons provided by the Geel Electron Linear Accelerator (GELINA) facility. The angular distributions were measured with a new ionization detector, which offers an advantageous 2π geometry and nanosecond timing capability. Comparison is made between the angular distribution data obtained from this work and the results of calculations based on the compound model and on a direct reaction model involving a deuteron exchange mechanism in the s-wave channel.
