According to recent announcements, the atomic pile at Harwell Research Station in England will start operating very shortly. The “Gleep” (Graphite Low Energy Pile) is already in operation at Harwell, yielding 160 samples of radioactive chemicals a month. It is hoped that increased production from the new pile will provide enough atomic byproducts for Britain’s own immediate needs and a possible surplus for export to the Continent.
