DOE, General Matter team up for new fuel mission at Hanford
The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management (EM) on Tuesday announced a partnership with California-based nuclear fuel company General Matter for the potential use of the long-idle Fuels and Materials Examination Facility (FMEF) at the Hanford Site in Washington state.
According to the announcement, the DOE and General Matter have signed a lease to explore the FMEF's potential to be used for advanced nuclear fuel cycle technologies and materials, in part to help satisfy the predicted future requirements of artificial intelligence.

A method for solving various infinite medium and half-space multigroup transport problems with anisotropic transfer is presented. A set of eigensolutions for the homogeneous multigroup equations is obtained and is shown to have “full-range” completeness and orthogonality properties. These properties then can be used to solve for the infinite medium Green's function. Half-space problems are solved in two distinct steps. First, the emergent distribution is calculated. Then, application of the full-range completeness property gives the complete solution everywhere in the half-space. The success of this method implies that the eigensolutions also possess a “half-range” completeness property.
