New U.S. BWRX-300 projects get Japanese investment
Coinciding with the March 19 White House meeting between President Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae, the Department of Commerce announced three new energy deals as part of a Japan-U.S. Strategic Investment initiative. Two of the deals involve the construction of natural gas generation facilities. The third, with an estimated value of as much as $40 billion, involves the construction of GE Vernova Hitachi (GVH) BWRX-300 small modular reactors in Tennessee and Alabama.

The magnitude and energy dependence of the 9Be(n,t1)7Li reaction have been measured between 13.3.- and 15-MeV neutron energy by observing the gamma decay of the first excited state of 7Li with a Ge(Li) detector. A ring and shadow-cone geometry was used. The results are in disagreement with a previous measurement of this cross section.
