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.

A sensitive search for a dependence of composite (aggregate) delayed neutron spectra on the energy of neutrons inducing fission of 235U was performed for eight nearly contiguous delay time intervals between 0.17 to 85.5 s. The experimental arrangement combined a helium jet and tape transfer system with a beta-neutron time-of-flight spectrometer. Thermal and fast neutron measurements were performed successively. Results are compared with spectra derived from individual precursor data complemented by theoretical estimates of missing spectra.
