3-Source Strategy:
High Flux Isotope Reactor, Spallation Neutron Source, Second Target Station
-
High Flux Isotope Reactor
Operating at 85 MW, HFIR provides one of the highest steady-state neutron fluxes of any reactor in the world for materials research.
- Operating Status: Reactor Power is at 85 MW
-
Spallation Neutron Source
SNS is the most powerful pulsed neutron source in the world for materials research.
- Operating Status: Beam to Target
-
Second Target Station
ORNL is moving forward with plans for a third neutron source: the Second Target Station (STS) at SNS, to address emerging science challenges.
