Three major nuclear accidents, as seen by young American and Russian professionals - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists

Three major nuclear accidents, as seen by young American and Russian professionals - Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists: We asked a group of young American and Russians professionals to do a deeper dive on the issue of nuclear safety after last summer’s airing of the popular HBO miniseries Chernobyl. The miniseries took a lot of liberties with the technical facts, but it captured the personal hardships and suffering of the nuclear disaster. We expanded the problem to include the nuclear accidents at Three Mile Island in the United States and Fukushima in Japan, so as to cover the effects of the world’s three major nuclear accidents on the future of nuclear power.
