Reactor | MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory
The MIT Reactor (MITR) is the major experimental facility of the NRL. It is a light-water cooled and moderated, heavy-water reflected, nuclear reactor that utilizes flat, finned, aluminum-clad plate-type, fuel elements. The average core power density is about 70 kW per liter.
MIT Nuclear Research Reactor - Wikipedia
The MIT Nuclear Research Reactor (MITR) serves the research purposes of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It is a tank-type 6 megawatt reactor [2] that is moderated and cooled by light water and uses heavy water as a reflector.
About | MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory
The MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory (MIT-NRL) is an interdepartmental center that operates a high performance 6 MW nuclear research reactor known as the MITR. It is the second largest university research reactor in the U.S. and the only one located on the campus of a major research university.

Liam Hines: Aligning economic and regulatory frameworks for today’s nuclear reactor technology
The MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory (NRL) operates a research reactor (MITR) that has been in service since 1958. The MITR has now completed its 60th year of operation (its 43rd since the 1974–1975 upgrade and overhaul).
History | MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory
The reactor, which is designated as the MITR-II, is the second of two research reactors that have been operated by the NRL. The original reactor (MITR-I) achieved criticality in 1958. In 1973, the MITR-I was shut down to allow conversion to the MITR-II, which offered a …

The NRL has one of the strongest nuclear materials and in-core research programs in the country, supporting studies in the areas of advanced nuclear fuel and materials which are necessary for both existing and advanced power reactors.
The MIT Nuclear Reactor Laboratory (NRL) operates the MIT Reactor (MITR), a research reactor that has been in service since 1958. The current version of the reactor dates from 1975, following replacement of the original core with a redesigned version providing increased neutron intensity.
