Leading the charge: INL’s role in advancing HALEU production
Idaho National Laboratory is playing a key role in helping the U.S. Department of Energy meet near-term needs by recovering HALEU from federal inventories, providing critical support to help lay the foundation for a future commercial HALEU supply chain. INL also supports coordination of broader DOE efforts, from material recovery at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina to commercial enrichment initiatives.

The formalism of the exact DSN method, also called the I* method, is recalled. A fully analytical integration is proposed to compute the three-dimensional array I*(k, l, m), which is the crucial point of such a theory. Comparisons with the numerical quadratures proposed so far show that a significant CPU time savings is achieved (a factor of 1000 for S8), and, moreover, a few symmetry properties relax the storage requirements by a factor of ∼4.
