Not exact matches
Important questions yet to be resolved include the details of obtaining and confirming a target warhead during the zero - knowledge
measurement; specifics of establishing and maintaining the pre-loaded
detectors in a way that ensures inspecting party confidence without revealing any
data considered sensitive by the inspected party; and feasibility questions associated with safely deploying active interrogation
measurement techniques on actual nuclear warheads in sensitive physical environments, in a way that provides confidence to both the inspected and inspecting parties.
Prior to CRaTER and recent
measurements by the Radiation Assessment
Detector (RAD) on the Mars rover Curiosity, the effects of thick shielding on cosmic rays had only been simulated in computer models and in particle accelerators, with little observational
data from deep space.
The Daya Bay team started taking
data on 24 December and needed only 55 days of running the
detectors to make a definite
measurement.
The Daya Bay
measurement is expected to improve with more
data and a better understanding of the
detector response.
