  • Final Supplement Analysis for the Final
    DOE/EIS-0225-SA-06 June 2018 FINAL SUPPLEMENT ANALYSIS FOR THE FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT FOR THE CONTINUED OPERATION OF THE PANTEX PLANT AND ASSOCIATED STORAGE OF NUCLEAR WEAPON COMPONENTS U.S. Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration NNSA Production Office SA for the Pantex Plant SWEIS June 2018 SUMMARY The Pantex Plant (Pantex or Plant) is located in the Texas Panhandle, approximately 17 miles northeast of Amarillo, Texas. Pantex is the primary site for the assembly of nuclear weapons for the nation’s stockpile and disassembly of nuclear weapons being retired from the stockpile. Pantex also evaluates, repairs, and retrofits nuclear weapons in the stockpile; provides interim storage for nuclear material; develops, fabricates, and tests chemical explosives and explosive components for nuclear weapons; and supports the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) initiatives. In November 1996, DOE issued the Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Continued Operation of the Pantex Plant and Associated Storage of Nuclear Weapon Components (DOE/EIS-0225; DOE 1996a) (referred to as the Pantex Site-Wide EIS [or SWEIS]). The SWEIS assessed impacts on areas of the human and natural environment potentially affected by operations performed at Pantex. The SWEIS evaluated activities associated with ongoing operations, including onsite nuclear material storage, transportation of nuclear material to an alternate site for interim storage, and transportation of classified components between Pantex and other sites occurring over

  • Fusion Energy: `Yes We Can' by Laurence Hecht Editor-In-Chief, 21St Century Science & Technology January 11, 2009
    Fusion Energy: `Yes We Can' by Laurence Hecht Editor-in-chief, 21st Century Science & Technology January 11, 2009 John Nuckolls, former director of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, has proposed a 10-year strategy for achieving laser fusion, which he said could be accomplished with 10 percent of President-elect Obama's $150-billion projected energy program. The contents of Dr. Nuckolls' proposal addresses issues of science not well-known to today's general public, but which should be better known. In laser fusion, a tiny target of deuterium, sometimes combined with tritium, is compressed by a shock wave which is produced by focused laser beams. The shock causes the deuterium, a naturally occurring isotope of hydrogen present in seawater, and tritium to combine, forming a nucleus of helium and a neutron. The mass of the resulting helium nucleus is less than the component nuclei, and the mass difference is released as energy, according to the famous equation E = mc2. The energy release per fusion is several times greater than that produced by the fission of a uranium nucleus, which is millions of times greater than the energy released by burning of a molecule of oil or natural gas. The heat of fusion energy can thus drive electrical turbines with far greater efficacy than any known power source, and can also be utilized in a device known as the fusion torch, to break down raw ore and even garbage into its constituent elements. Dr. Nuckolls, who led research on laser fusion at the national laboratory for many years, proposed "four steps to fusion power." (1) build an efficient high-average power laser module, a factory for producing laser targets, and a fusion chamber; (2) build a surged, heat capacity inertial fusion energy system; (3) build a fusion engine; (4) build a fusion power plant.

    United States Government Accountability Office Report to Congressional Committees June 2019 NUCLEAR WEAPONS Additional Actions Could Help Improve Management of Activities Involving Explosive Materials GAO-19-449 June 2019 NUCLEAR WEAPONS Additional Actions Could Help Improve Management of Activities Involving Explosive Materials Highlights of GAO-19-449, a report to congressional committees Why GAO Did This Study What GAO Found NNSA is responsible for the Five National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) contractor-operated sites management and security of the U.S. conduct activities to design and produce explosive materials. There are about nuclear stockpile. NNSA has ongoing 100 different nuclear weapon components that contain explosive materials (see and planned efforts to modernize figure). Each site assumes primary responsibility for certain activities, but most nearly all of the weapons in the activities require collaboration by multiple sites, according to NNSA officials and stockpile, which require new explosive contractor representatives. In 2018, NNSA began adopting a centralized components. The production of some approach to managing these activities and coordinating them across its sites. key explosives ceased in the early 1990s, and much of the infrastructure Key Explosive-Containing Components in a Generic Nuclear Weapon supporting this work is aging, making it expensive and difficult to maintain. The Senate Report accompanying a bill for the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2018 included a provision for GAO to review NNSA’s high explosive capabilities specific to nuclear weapons. This report examines (1) explosives activities that NNSA and its sites conduct and how NNSA manages them; (2) challenges NNSA officials and contractor representatives Notes: Symbols do not show actual designs.
