Or Offering Terrorists Targets
Matthew Bunn
Senior Research Associate
Harvard University Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs

Noon - 1:30 pm

This seminar addresses the linkage between civilian nuclear energy 
technologies and the spread of nuclear weapons, and offers a number 
of metrics for judging technical and institutional proposals to break 
this linkage.  The talk will also briefly address the danger of 
terrorist theft of nuclear materials and sabotage of nuclear 
facilities, and how it might be addressed.  Matthew Bunn, a 
recognized expert on security issues related to nuclear stockpiles 
and currently Senior Research Associate in the Managing the Atom 
Project at the Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs in 
Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, is also 
pursuing the TMP Doctoral degree here at MIT.
