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 singular differential equations of arbitrary order, derived in a tensorial approximation to the integral transport for monoenergetic neutrons in slab and sphere geometries, are solved by a power series expansion without imposing any boundary condition. The relation to the exact integral transport approach is theoretically studied, and numerical calculations for the tensorial differential approach are worked out.
