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.

A general systematic method to reduce multiregion problems in plane geometry to regular integral equations for the coefficients of singular-eigenfunction expansions is proposed. The method is based on the half-range orthogonality relations of the eigenfunctions and is applicable in two-groups as well as one-group theory. The method is used to solve two problems in one-group theory for isotropic scattering: the Milne problem for a half-space bounded by a slab of dissimilar medium and a problem of neutron transmission through two slabs. Numerical results are reported for several sets of parameters.
