Penn State’s Radiation Science & Engineering Center and the Ken and Mary Alice Lindquist Department of Nuclear Engineering broke ground on a 10,000-square-foot, $9.5 million expansion of the Breazeale Reactor on Oct. 21. The nation’s first licensed and longest continuously operating nuclear research reactor, Breazeale’s expansion will accommodate an equipment donation from Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin in Germany, valued at $9.8 million, and facilitate more advanced neutron beam research as well as the growth of nuclear engineering at Penn State.
Kenan Ünlü, Jean Paul Allain and Justin Schwartz, along with other representatives from Penn State and nuclear industry, ceremoniously broke ground on the Breazeale Nuclear Reactor expansion on Oct. 21.
