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.

High-order flux perturbations are considered. A differential functional approach leads to a recursion relation, which is then used in deriving n'th-order explicit expressions for the flux perturbations. These expressions depend on the unperturbed flux and adjoint flux and on a detailed Green's function in the perturbed zone.
