High-Flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor
open-in-new
<p>The High-Flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor is a 30 MW multi-purpose <a href="/facts/Research_reactor/lA2UNTuV">research reactor</a> located at <a href="/facts/Daejeon/uuNK17BW">Daejeon</a>, <a href="/facts/Republic_of_Korea/pCobAaVw">Republic of Korea</a>. It was designed by Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (<a href="/facts/KAERI/302rLnF3">KAERI</a>) as a facility for research and development on the neutron science and its applications. </p><p>HANARO has been playing a significant role as a national facility in the area of neutron science, the production of key radioisotopes, material testing for power reactor application, neutron transmutation doping (<a href="/facts/Doping_(semiconductor)/WrGdtWnm">NTD</a>), neutron activation analysis, and neutron radiography. After the installation of a cold neutron source in 2010, it has been also serving as a regional and international facility for neutron science. </p>
