Retrospective Analysis of US LWR Technology Commercialization: Lessons for Today's Nuclear Industry
Journal ArticleDOI
Thorium fuel cycles with externally driven systems
Nicholas R. Brown,Jeffrey J. Powers,Michael Todosow,Massimiliano Fratoni,Hans Ludewig,Eva E Sunny,Gilad Raitses,A.L. Aronson +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, both accelerator-driven systems (ADSs) and fusion-driven subcritical systems are associated with thorium, partially because thorium has no naturally occurring fissile isotopes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of fuel cycle simulator functionalities for analysis of transition to a new fuel cycle
Nicholas R. Brown,Brett W. Carlsen,Brent Dixon,Bo Feng,H R Greenberg,Ross D. Hays,Stefano Passerini,Michael Todosow,Andrew Worrall +8 more
TL;DR: The objective of this paper is to identify the must test functionalities of a fuel cycle simulator tool within the context of specific problems of interest to the Fuel Cycle Options Campaign within the U.S. Department of Energy s Office of Nuclear Energy.
Journal ArticleDOI
High‐Performance Ultra‐light Nuclear Rockets for Near‐Earth Objects Interaction Missions
TL;DR: The performance capabilities and technology features of ultra compact nuclear thermal rockets based on very high power density (30 Megawatts per liter) fuel elements are described in this paper, which are particularly attractive for carrying out missions to investigate or intercept near-Earth objects (NEOs) that potentially could impact on the Earth.
ReportDOI
The PHOENIX Concept
TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid proton-accelerator-sub-critical lattice is proposed for transmuting key long-lived radioactive isotopes, primarily the so-called minor actinides (Np, Am, Cm), using a hybrid Proton Accelerator-Sub-Critical lattice.
