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.

The total neutron cross section of Eu151 has been measured in the energy range from 0.10 to 1.00 ev, using samples of high isotopic purity. The parameters for the double resonance, which occurs at 0.321 and 0.460 ev, have been derived by fitting the data to the sum of two single-level Breit-Wigner expressions.
