Irradiation Cell

Irradiation Cell

At one end of the reactor pool is a large room that allows dry irradiation of samples up to 20 feet long. Samples are only 3 inches from the operating reactor allowing maximum dry irradiation to …  Read More


Cans for in-core irradiation samoles

In-core irradiation devices

In-core irradiation devices allow for a variety of geometries, given the active region of the core is 15 inches long. The newest facility is our Very Large Long Tube, which can hold and rotate sa…  Read More


Radiochemistry lab

The radiochemistry lab has a handling cell to allow for remote handling of highly radioactive samples, a glove box for handling lower level samples in a contained environment, and several fume ho…  Read More


Close up of detector with Sample

Neutron activation analysis and counting lab

Samples may be quickly transferred between the reactor and the counting laboratory through a pneumatic transfer system. The counting lab contains 4 high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors and adva…  Read More


Delayed neutron counting system

Delayed neutron counting system

This system allows researchers to transfer samples into the core and then pneumatically receive the sample into a group of neutron detectors and begin counting instantly. Potential neutron countin…  Read More
