A new low‐power nuclear reactor, measuring five feet on each side, has been constructed for research purposes at the Knolls Atomic Power Laboratory operated for the AEC by the General Electric Company at Schenectady. Using a graphite moderator and an enriched uranium fuel, the reactor is expected to be used primarily to detect trace amounts of elements from their effect on its operation when inserted inside the reactor.
