Operation GREENHOUSE, Scientific Director's Report. Volume 3. Greenhouse Handbook of Nuclear Explosions, March 1951 (Sanitized Version)

摘要

The Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory program of developing physically small fission weapons has led to the design of smaller high-explosive systems. Concurrently with the development of smaller fission weapons, the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory has been advancing in its work on new bomb. In this field, theoretical studies have advanced to the point that the experimental study of a simple thermonuclear reaction becomes necessary.
