Breaking ground on a new approach to construction
The drive to Kairos Power’s reactor demonstration site in Oak Ridge, Tenn., is not only scenic—it’s historic. Nearly 85 years ago, roughly 30,000 construction workers transformed orchards and farmland into a key Manhattan Project site. Depending on your route, you may pass by one of the three gatehouses that were once military checkpoints controlling access to Atomic Energy Commission production facilities.

A same probabilistic approach is applied to the case of complex reactions, i.e., of convex combinations of single reactions. The dynamical systems obtained in this way are considerably more complex than those that arise in the study of single reactions. In particular, complex reactions give rise to higher dimensional systems and require a more sophisticated analysis. No complex dynamics is observed in this work, with the exception of those cases that are not physically relevant.
