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.

Thermonuclear reaction-rate and reactivity parameters calculated as a function of kT (for kT values from 1 to 1000 keV) are presented for all outgoing channels in nuclear reactions initiated by deuterons on 6Li. The results are based on recent experimental (d + 6Li) reaction cross sections and a newly derived cross-section extrapolation expression.
