Nuclear Weapons Effects, Artificial Intelligence, Subcritical Experiments
Los Alamos National Laboratory Chief Scientist for Weapons Effects Tim Goorley explains how understanding nuclear weapons effects is a crucial component of national security. He addresses what happens when a nuclear device detonates and how scientists study nuclear weapons effects.\nLabcast: Artificial Intelligence takes center stage as Los Alamos National Laboratory creates National Security AI Office.\nHighlights from the Hill: Los Alamos National Laboratory begins assembly on components for Scorpius\u2014a machine that will allow scientists to use real plutonium in subcritical experiments to study how nuclear weapons behave.
