Description

The Manhattan Project required a large amount of innovative work to develop new techniques and new materials. A review of such activities could be useful for future developments of the actinides. It is important to work out techniques for handling radioactive waste. I will review the activities dealing with the development of plutonium containment that could serve as a guide for future needs
