  • SKI Report 02:18 Nuclear Weapons Research in Sweden Research
    SKI’s perspective Background In the year 1998 Sweden, together with the rest of the states in the European Union and Euratom signed the Additional Protocol to the Safeguard Agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA. The Additional Protocol gives the Agency extended complimentary access to areas and buildings and rights to take environmental samples within a state. The process of ratification is going on with the intention that the protocol should be implemented simultaneously in all member states. In ratifying the agreement in May 2000, Sweden changed its Act on Nuclear Activities and passed a new law regarding inspections. The present estimate is that the protocol could be implemented in the beginning of 2003 after ratification in all EU member states. Aim When the Additional Protocol is implemented, Sweden is to be “mapped” by the IAEA, scrutinising all nuclear activities, present as well as future plans. In the light of this, SKI has chosen to go one step further, letting Dr Thomas Jonter of the Department of History at Uppsala University investigate Sweden’s past activities in the area of nuclear weapons research in a political perspective. Dr Jonter has previously studied the Swedish National Defence Research Institute’s (FOA) activities in this area up until 1972. This report deals with the civilian research programme and its links to the military plans to produce nuclear weapons. Since Sweden had plans in the nuclear weapons area it is important to show to the IAEA that all such activities have stopped. This is the main objective with this report. Results Dr Jonter has made a survey of available sources in the archives at Studsvik and FOI, where the records of the AB Atomenergi company are stored.
