History of nuclear testing discussed at talk today

Part of Lab's classified colloquium series

A longtime Los Alamos nuclear weapon scientist will examine the status and history of nuclear testing at a classified Director's Colloquium today at the Laboratory.

Robert Brownlee, currently an affiliate in the Dynamic Experimentation (DX) Division, will speak on "Test Readiness and the Obligations of a Nuclear Stockpile" at 1:10 this afternoon in the Administration Building Auditorium at Technical Area 3.

All attendees must hold "Q" clearances and have sigmas 1-10 assigned by line management. To register for the colloquium and others in the classified colloquium series, write to the Security Help Desk at security@lanl.gov by electronic mail and include name, Z number, group, e-mail address and phone number. Registration information also is available at http://stbblue.lanl.gov/colloquium online.

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); employees should indicate they are attending the classified colloquium.
