Demon Core
The 6.2 Kilogram Sphere That Killed Its Masters
Por DAVID ARNOT
Sinopsis
In the labs of Los Alamos, after the bombs fell on Japan, one plutonium core remained. The scientists called it "Rufus," but history remembers it as the Demon Core. It was a perfect sphere of death that tolerated no mistakes. Yet, the brilliant physicists played with it, tickling the dragons tail with nothing but a screwdriver and steady hands.
This book chronicles the chilling true stories of Harry Daghlian and Louis Slotin, who both died triggering the cores blue flash of criticality. It is a harrowing examination of scientific hubris, the psychological disconnect between genius and safety, and the invisible, melting destruction of acute radiation sickness. A gripping reminder that the most dangerous weapon is not the bomb itself, but the arrogance of the men who hold it.
