HFIR & SNS History
HFIR and SNS were originally built
for different reasons. SNS was constructed
to meet the needs of the neutron scattering
community, as current spallation facilities
around the world were aging. HFIR
was constructed to produce isotopes
for
use in various fields.
Today, HFIR's primary mission has
changed, with its focus on neutron
scattering research. Together, the
capabilities of the two facilities
complement each other.
