DOE extends Centrus’s HALEU production contract by one year
Centrus Energy has announced that it has secured a contract extension from the Department of Energy to continue—for one year—its ongoing high-assay low-enriched uranium (HALEU) production at the American Centrifuge Plant in Piketon, Ohio, at an annual rate of 900 kilograms of HALEU UF6. According to Centrus, the extension is valued at about $110 million through June 30, 2026.

Multigroup k and α eigenvalue problems for plane asymmetric cell lattices with superimposed small buckling are considered. Expressions for k and α eigenvalues and corresponding fundamental modes are given. A modified diffusion equation is introduced and some formulas for homogenized cross sections and diffusion coefficients are derived.
