The High-Flux Advanced Neutron Application Reactor (HANARO) (하나로) is a 30 MW multi-purpose
research reactor located at
Daejeon,
Republic of Korea. It was designed by Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (
KAERI) as a facility for research and development on the neutron science and its applications.
HANARO has been playing a significant role as a national facility in the area of neutron science, the production of key radioisotopes, material testing for power reactor application, neutron transmutation doping (
NTD), neutron activation analysis, and neutron radiography. After the installation of a cold neutron source in 2010, it has been also serving as a regional and international facility for neutron science.
