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.

The results obtained from the solution of the expansion coefficient equations obtained in the preceding paper for the Walsh approximation are given for both one and two dimensions. Since the one-dimensional analysis was performed mainly to lay a foundation for the two-dimensional analysis, only a brief summary of the one-dimensional results is given. The two-dimensional analysis was performed on a problem type that accentuates ray effects. Solutions obtained with various Walsh and Gauss-Walsh quadrature sets are shown; these solutions provide substantial mitigation of the ray effect, yet retain a reasonable degree of accuracy in the calculation of volumetric reaction rates.
