Talk:Demon core

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Thanks for finding data!

Hi there Rememberlands,

Thank you for locating the data on the demon core-did it refer to the core as "The Demon Core", as well when it was placed into ABLE?--Read-write-services (talk) 22:31, 29 November 2007 (UTC)


The source made the connection between the two incidents and implied that the same core was used in ABLE. It did not mention when it was put into the ABLE bomb except that Slotin's test was originally intended to be the final demonstration of the core's ability to go critical before ABLE. The core was not referred to as "The Demon Core." (Rememberlands (talk) 23:47, 8 December 2007 (UTC))

Personally, I would recommend that a [citation need] sign be placed after the end of the first paragraph although I do not know understand how to indicate that. Rememberlands (talk) 06:36, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Demon core incidents

Were these two incidents the basis for the scene in Fat Man and Little Boy where Cusack's character is involved in a similar accident? Might be worth adding to the article, if so. 68Kustom (talk) 21:59, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
