GAIN vouchers go to Constellation, Nano Nuclear, and NuCube
The Department of Energy’s Gateway for Accelerated Innovation in Nuclear (GAIN) has awarded three fiscal year 2026 vouchers to support the development of advanced nuclear technologies. Each company will get access to specific capabilities and expertise in the DOE’s national laboratory complex—in this round of awards both Oak Ridge National Laboratory and Argonne National Laboratory are named—and will be responsible for a minimum 20 percent cost share, which can be an in-kind contribution.

The effective U238 resonance neutron capture integrals of uranium metal and UO2 rods of a variety of diameters have been measured by an activation technique. Small corrections have been applied to compensate for departure of the flux spectrum from a 1/E shape. The results are compared with Hellstrand's measurements and with calculations by Nordheim. There is excellent agreement for UO2. For U metal, agreement is not as good, but the difference is judged to be within the over-all uncertainty.
