1. (A) Advanced-nuclear-reactor-neutronics analysis and experimentation, including reactor, plant, shielding, nuclear data, source-program software, nuclear database, conceptual design, core and system design, certification in the phases, core-management and fuel-management technology, modeling, and calculation;
2. (B) Advanced-nuclear-reactor safety and plant safety, including reactor-system safety standards, accident-analysis software, and accident-management regulations;
3. (C) Advanced-nuclear-reactor fuels and materials, including long-life fuel, clad materials, structural materials, component materials, absorber materials, circuit materials, raw materials, fuels-and-materials research and development, testing programs used to develop fuels and materials-manufacturing processes, experimental data, formulae, technological processes, and facilities and equipment used to manufacture advanced-nuclear-reactor fuels and materials;
4. (D) Advanced-nuclear-reactor-nuclear-steam-supply systems and their associated components and equipment, including design standards, component, equipment, and systems design, thermal hydraulics, mechanics, and chemistry analysis;
