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.

Differential cross sections for neutron-induced gamma-ray production from thorium have been measured for incident neutron energies between 0.3 and 20.0 MeV. The Oak Ridge Electron Linear Accelerator was used as a neutron source. A Nal spectrometer at 125 deg detected the gamma rays. Data include the doubly differential cross section, d2σ/dΩdEγ, for gamma-ray energies between 0.3 and 10.6 MeV and the integrated gamma-ray yield as a function of the incident neutron energy.
