Leading the charge: INL’s role in advancing HALEU production
Idaho National Laboratory is playing a key role in helping the U.S. Department of Energy meet near-term needs by recovering HALEU from federal inventories, providing critical support to help lay the foundation for a future commercial HALEU supply chain. INL also supports coordination of broader DOE efforts, from material recovery at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina to commercial enrichment initiatives.

A model calculation of neutron activation cross sections is carried out with SINCROS-II for all stable isotopes of molybdenum. Results of the calculation are compared with experimental data, which were measured over the wide range from threshold to 20 MeV. The general agreement between the calculated and experimental cross sections is good, but some cross sections remain in significant disagreement. The calculational method is applicable to the estimation of production cross sections for the long-lived radioactive nuclides.
