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.

Angular dependent fast-neutron penetration spectra have been calculated and experimentally measured for fast neutrons non-normally incident on water slabs. Previously reported work has included a comprehensive set of experimental measurements for angular dependent penetration spectra measured for poly energetic fast neutrons normally incident on water slabs. Corresponding Monte Carlo calculated results were in good agreement and were tabulated for direct calculations of penetration spectra for complex geometries. The results of the experiments described here extend the applicability of these results for normal incidence to certain cases of non-normal incidence.
