DOE selects first companies for nuclear launch pad
The Department of Energy’s Office of Nuclear Energy and the National Reactor Innovation Center have announced their first selections for the Nuclear Energy Launch Pad: three companies developing microreactors and one developing fuel supply.
The four companies—Deployable Energy, General Matter, NuCube Energy, and Radiant Industries—were selected from the initial pool of Reactor Pilot Program and Fuel Line Pilot Program applicants, the two precursor programs to the launch pad.

A method of studying neutron transport properties in H2O-D2O mixtures, both liquid and solid, which extrapolates the neutron thermalization parameters of H2O is described. The decay of pulsed neutrons in the media has been investigated as an example of the application of the method. The results of the calculations agree with the experiment for concentrations up to 50% D2O.
