The deadline arrives: Checking in on the Reactor Pilot Program
On May 23, 2025, President Trump signed Executive Order 14301, “Reforming Nuclear Reactor Testing at the DOE,” which instructed the Department of Energy to create a Reactor Pilot Program (RPP)—a new system in which companies could pursue DOE authorization to build and test their first-of-a-kind nuclear technologies. EO 14301 set an ambitious goal for that program: three reactors achieving criticality by July 4, 2026.

All cross sections of neutron-induced reactions, angular distributions, energy spectra, and double-differential cross sections for n + 113,115,nat.In reactions are consistently calculated and analyzed at incident neutron energies below 200 MeV by using nuclear theoretical models. The isomeric cross section is especially calculated. The theoretical results are further compared with the available experimental data and the evaluated results in ENDF/B-VII, JENDL-4, and TENDL-2012.
