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.

The variation of v(A) data as a function of the proportion of scission neutrons has been examined for 252Cf(sf). The scission neutron proportion was varied from 0 to 25%. The results show that the v(A) variation is significant only in the region near symmetric fission. The variation of vtot(A) is smaller than that of v(A).
