Purpose

At the meeting with Bent Lauritzen at Risø, we asked him to endorse us and potentially serve as advisor. His response was to at least give him some concrete material on our goals and how we want to pursue them.

The document should outline the following:

I've added a few comments - I suggest we make it completely clear that we want to do LFTR in he letter and use this to name specific advantages when it comes to costs, safety etc. I'm looking into some of the next areas....

@Askjensen: Just a comment: LFTR is a specific design, it insinuates a thorium closed fuel cycle in a FLiBe salt using thermal neutrons. We are doing MSR, which is a more general therm, however, i do think we agree that thorium is the way to go so we could also call it Th-MSR or just TMSR.

Askjensen commented 9 years ago

Ah yes of course I agree - still working on the lingo - but my point was to still clearly state that we want a molten salt reactor and the arguments that goes with that.
