The purpose of the SAM-1 experiment is to populate a sample library to obtain data for low fluences of metallic fuels. Fuel for the proposed action would be manufactured from Department of Energy-owned depleted uranium. Following irradiation in the Advanced Test Reactor at the Idaho National Laboratory, the samples would be available for post-irradiation examination as part of a separate proposal process.
