Here is a recap of recent industry happenings:
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.

The measurements of fast neutron capture cross sections of europium relative to gold at six neutron energies were carried out by using a large liquid scintillator detector. The neutron capture cross sections of 151 Eu and 153 Eu were calculated from 0.1 to 2.0 MeV using an optical model and statistical theory. The results are discussed and compared with the results of previous experiments.
