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.

Cross sections of the 58Ni(n,p)58Co, 51Co(n,p)59Fe, 51V(n,α)48Sc, and 59Co(n,2n)58Co reactions and isomer ratios for the 58Ni(n,p)58Co reaction were measured for some neutron energies between 9 and 14 MeV. Neutron spectrometry, with an NE-213 scintillation detector, of the beams from the D(d,n)3He reaction was used to evaluate the activation induced by breakup neutrons on natural nickel, cobalt, vanadium, and aluminum-monitor targets. The results are compared with earlier measurements and with theoretical calculations performed with the aid of the GNASH code (Hauser-Feschbach model including pre-equilibrium corrections).
