Aalo and Antares progress on Reactor Pilot Program
Two participants in the Department of Energy’s Reactor Pilot Program have recently announced significant milestones on their associated reactor projects. Aalo Atomics successfully completed its final design review (FDR), and Antares Nuclear has received DOE approval of its preliminary documented safety analysis (PDSA).

Discrete eigenvalues of a one-speed linear transport equation with anisotropic scattering are studied. It is shown that there is only one pair of real discrete eigenvalues for linear, quadratic, or triplet scattering for a nonmultiplicative medium. For a multiplicative medium there is one imaginary pair of eigenvalues or at most four eigenvalues. These can form one real and one imaginary pair, two imaginary pairs, or a quartet. The range of parameters for these different situations is derived analytically. These are then supported by numerical results that are tabulated in tables for each type of scattering.
