Leading the charge: INL’s role in advancing HALEU production
Idaho National Laboratory is playing a key role in helping the U.S. Department of Energy meet near-term needs by recovering HALEU from federal inventories, providing critical support to help lay the foundation for a future commercial HALEU supply chain. INL also supports coordination of broader DOE efforts, from material recovery at the Savannah River Site in South Carolina to commercial enrichment initiatives.

Integral Transport methods were used to calculate the x-ray intensity in a NOVA hohlraum. Two cases were examined: the nominal case in which all five lasers strike either side of the hohlraum and the abnormal case for which five lasers strike the right side but only four strike the left. As expected, the uniform case produces a fairly uniform illumination over the capsule, whereas the abnormal case is highly non-uniform.
