The Nuclear Information Project
Project Sectionshttps://www.fas.org/programs/ssp/nukes/index.html
The Nuclear Information Project covers nuclear weapons and arms control and the nuclear fuel cycle.
The project provides the general public and
policy-makers with information and analysis on the status, number, and
operation of nuclear weapons, the policies that guide their potential
use and nuclear arms control. Nuclear weapons data are based on official
documents, testimonies and previously undisclosed information obtained
through the Freedom of Information Act, as well as independent analysis
of commercial satellite images.
The project reports on developments in the nuclear
fuel cycle that are relevant to nuclear weapons proliferation. Both
uranium enrichment for nuclear reactor fuel and separation of plutonium
from spent reactor fuel can produce fissionable material for nuclear
bombs. The project puts technical information into a nonproliferation
context and looks at case studies by conducting independent calculations
and analyses.
