Launching into tomorrow: NRIC guides new era of research and deployment
In June 2025, the Department of Energy announced the Reactor Pilot Program, an authorization pathway that allowed reactor developers to partner with the DOE to get first-of-a-kind (FOAK) reactors built and tested. Soon after, the DOE rolled out a complementary Fuel Line Pilot Program, which aimed to fast-track fuel projects. In all, 20 projects were accepted into the new programs.

A thermoluminescent method for displaying thermal-neutron images is described. A sheet of 6 LiF, exposed to the imaging neutrons for periods as long as is necessary to capture the image, can be made to reproduce the image by means of the light emission produced by heating at anytime after the exposure. The excellent storage capability of this detection method makes it attractive for use with relatively low intensity neutron radiographic beams.
