DOE, General Matter team up for new fuel mission at Hanford
The Department of Energy's Office of Environmental Management (EM) on Tuesday announced a partnership with California-based nuclear fuel company General Matter for the potential use of the long-idle Fuels and Materials Examination Facility (FMEF) at the Hanford Site in Washington state.
According to the announcement, the DOE and General Matter have signed a lease to explore the FMEF's potential to be used for advanced nuclear fuel cycle technologies and materials, in part to help satisfy the predicted future requirements of artificial intelligence.

Calculations of the age to indium resonance of neutrons from the reaction D(d, n)He3 in water and heavy water have been performed by the Monte Carlo method. The calculations were designed to simulate the experiments of Spiegel et al. The effect of the duct used to lead the deuteron beam into the medium was investigated. The computations show agreement with the experimental results and with a similar calculation performed by Mullin.
