A propos de cet article

12 pages, plus covers. Illustrations (color). The Y-12 National Security Complex is a United States Department of Energy National Nuclear Security Administration facility located in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, near the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. It was built as part of the Manhattan Project for the purpose of enriching uranium for the first atomic bombs. It is considered the birthplace of the atomic bomb. In the years after World War II, it has been operated as a manufacturing facility for nuclear weapons components and related defense purposes. The Y-12 facility began operating in November 1943, separating uranium-235 from natural uranium, which is 99.3% uranium-238, by using calutrons to perform electromagnetic isotope separation. Y-12 separated the uranium-235 for Little Boy, the nuclear weapon that was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. K-25, another facility in Oak Ridge, produced enriched uranium using gaseous diffusion. However, K-25 did not begin operating until March 1945 and fed slightly enriched uranium to Y-12's Beta Calutrons as the push to obtain enough uranium 235 for Little Boy came in the early summer of 1945. Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Y-12, LLC engages in the production, refurbishment, and dismantlement of nuclear weapons components, storage of nuclear material, and the prevention of the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction. It serves commercial companies, colleges and universities, local and state governments, federal agencies, and foreign governments. Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Y-12, LLC was formerly known as BWXT Y-12, LLC and changed its name to Babcock & Wilcox Technical Services Y-12, LLC in November 2007. The company was incorporated in 2000 and is based in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.…
