Isotope Co-Production and 14\,MeV Materials Qualification at a Spherical-Tokamak Breeder
Isotope co-production and 14 MeV materials qualification at the spherical-tokamak breeder. The same fusion-spectrum source provides a high-flux materials-qualification volume many times the reference dedicated facility, and breeds shortage-prone medical isotopes such as molybdenum-99 without a fission reactor. Strategic-material co-products booked as capability, not an economic claim. Capability projection, not an operating facility.
