Pedicini to discuss NTS evidence of plutonium aging

By Jim Danneskiold

June 15, 2005

Evidence from the nuclear testing program that helps us understand how long the plutonium pits in the stockpile will last is the focus of a Classified Director's Colloquium by a noted weapon designer on Thursday.

Laboratory Fellow John Pedicini of Primary Design and Assessment (X-4) will speak on "Aging: The View from the Nevada Test Site," at 1:10 p.m., in the Administration Building Auditorium at Technical Area 3.

All attendees must be U.S nationals who hold "Q" clearances and have sigmas 1-10 assigned by line management. For more information, click here.

The goal for the director's classified colloquium series is to disseminate important and interesting information on classified scientific topics to Los Alamos technical staff. The talks are planned to help inform a wide audience of Los Alamos' major classified scientific research and to stimulate discussions within an appropriate, secure environment, ultimately leading to future ideas and initiatives that will advance classified programs.

Transportation is available by calling 7-TAXI (7-8294) and indicating that you are attending the Classified Colloquium.
