Explosive properties of reactor‐grade plutonium

J. Carson Marka · 1 Aug 1993

The following discussion focuses on the question of whether a terrorist organization or a threshold state could make use of plutonium recovered from light‐water‐reactor fuel to construct a nuclear explosive device having a significantly damaging yield. Questions persist in some nonproliferation policy circles as to whether a bomb could be made from reactor‐grade plutonium of…

Detecting nuclear warheads

Steve Fetter, V. A. Frolov, Marvin M. Miller et al. · 1 Jan 1990

In the absence of shielding, “ordinary” nuclear weapons—those containing kilogram quantities of ordinary weapon‐grade (6 percent plutonium‐240) plutonium or uranium‐238—can be detected by neutron or gamma counters at a distance of tens of meters. Objects such as missile canisters can be radiographed with high‐energy x‐rays to reveal the presence of the dense fissile core of…

U‐232 and the proliferation‐resistance of U‐233 in spent fuel

Jungmin Kang, Frank von Hippel · 1 Jan 2001

The factors influencing the level of U‐232 contamination in U‐233 are examined for heavy‐water‐moderated, light‐water‐moderated and liquid‐metal cooled fast breeder reactors fueled with natural or low‐enriched uranium and containing thorium mixed with the uranium or in separate target channels. U‐232 decays with a 69‐year half‐life through 1.9‐year half‐life Th‐228 to T1–208, which emits a 2.6…

Tomographic Imaging with Cosmic Ray Muons

C. L. Morris, C. C. ALEXANDER, Jeffrey Bacon et al. · 15 Oct 2008

Over 120 million vehicles enter the United States each year. Many are capable of transporting hidden nuclear weapons or nuclear material. Currently deployed X-ray radiography systems are limited because they cannot be used on occupied vehicles and the energy and dose are too low to penetrate many cargos. We present a new technique that overcomes…

Analyzing and Reducing the Risks of Inadvertent Nuclear War Between the United States and Russia

Anthony M. Barrett, Seth D. Baum, Kelly Hostetler · 1 May 2013

Abstract This article develops a mathematical modeling framework using fault trees and Poisson processes for analyzing the risks of inadvertent nuclear war from U.S. or Russian misinterpretation of false alarms in early warning systems, and for assessing the potential value of options to reduce the risks of inadvertent nuclear war. The model also uses publicly…
