Investigations of an advanced fuel form are currently under way. This new fuel form, referred to as evolutionary mixed oxide (EMOX), is a slight perturbation on standard mixed-oxide (MOX) fuel, and analyses show that it can be an effective plutonium

The corrosion and fluence limits of stainless steel were evaluated to determine if it could be used as a blanket material in the accelerator-based conversion of plutonium (ABC) system at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL). Data from the Molten Sal

The radiation barrier alloy (RBA) concept is a method for introducing radioactive, chemical, and physical barriers for storing weapons-grade plutonium, and yet still allowing for accurate material control and accountability, as well as for retrieving

A conceptual target and blanket design for an accelerator transmutation of waste system capable of transmuting the high-level waste stream from 2.5 light water reactors is described. Typically, four such target-blanket designs would be served by a si

In preparation for and in support of a detailed R and D Plan for the Accelerator-Based Conversion (ABC) of weapons plutonium, an ABC Plant Layout Study was conducted at the level of a pre-conceptual engineering design. The plant layout is based on an

Kinetic calculations were made to show that subcritical accelerator driven devices are robust and stable. The calculations show that large changes in reactivity that would lead to an uncontrollable excursion in a reactor would lead only to a new powe

A spallation target constructed of thorium metal has been designed for applications using molten‐salt as the target coolant. The design consists of an array of wire‐wrapped, hastelloy‐clad, thorium rods in which a parabolic void region is intro
