This proposed facility will replace the NRU reactor and will incorporate a cold neutron source.
The National Research Council (NRC) and Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) are jointly proposing a Canadian Neutron Facility (CNF), which will be centred on a new, medium-flux research reactor. The CNF has been designed as a dual-purpose facility that supports in-core materials irradiation research and an ambitious neutron beam laboratory. The CNF neutron beam laboratory is envisioned to meet the research requirements of a broad community of scientists and engineers from universities, industries and government laboratories across Canada and throughout the world.
