Beamline scientists at the Spallation Neutron Source align a neutron beam collimator to facilitate the first neutron scattering measurements on tristructural isotropic nuclear fuel containing high assay, low enriched uranium.

In a first for TRISO fuel research, a cross-cutting effort among scientists at ORNL has successfully yielded first-of-a-kind neutron scattering measurements on TRISO fuel particles containing high-assay, low-enriched uranium.

Three men sit around a table in an office, discussing documents and taking notes. Open reference books lie on the table, and shelves filled with books and files are visible in the background.

Decades of nuclear fission research are providing critical insights to help scientists design the next generation of fusion systems, and few understand that connection better than ORNL’s Michael Loughlin.
