Naval Reactors and HEU
FAS President Charles D. Ferguson gave a presentation on August 5th at Oak Ridge National Laboratory on the use of highly enriched uranium (a weapons-usable fissile material) in naval reactors. He discussed an ongoing FAS-led task force (funded by the MacArthur Foundation) that includes about a dozen leading experts in nuclear engineering, nuclear security, and nuclear safeguards. Specifically, he asked for Oak Ridge National Laboratory's experts to advise him on this study. Dozens of people attended his presentation and several gave thoughtful advice and raised useful questions.
