N2 - In-core irradiation experiment research, such as materials and fuels irradiation research and radioisotope production, is one of the primary missions of Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s (ORNL) versatile High Flux Isotope Reactor (HFIR). In support of the HFIR-Sustaining and Enhancing Neutron Science (SENSe) Initiative, a technically diverse group of ORNL irradiation research subject matter experts formed the Spectrum Tailoring Working Group, with the goal of developing a compendium of experiment facility concepts to enhance irradiation experiment conditions via neutron spectrum tailoring capabilities. The purpose of this report is to document the concepts developed in FY22 and the associated scientific justifications, identify potential facility sponsors, and estimate costs and schedules for each concept. This report documents the efforts performed in FY22, which may continue in FY23 or later pending the direction of the HFIR-SENSe Initiative and the interested sponsors.
