Be it Russian threats to use nuclear weapons, fears of Iran becoming a nuclear weapon state, nuclear weapons states increasing their arsenals, or nuclear proliferation such as in North Korea: In our current world of geopolitical tensions and war, nuclear weapons issues continue to pose grave threats to international peace and security. But how does the world learn and know about the status of states’ nuclear programs?
Physicists play an important role here: They can support analyses of openly available information with physics-based simulation models. Furthermore, they can develop new techniques suited to monitor compliance with international arms control agreements. This talk presents several such examples, drawing from computational science and machine learning as well as radiation detection.
