Demon Core (dt. „ Dämonen kern“) ist der Spitzname einer 89 mm großen, 6,2 kg schweren Plutonium -Kugel, die bei zwei Unfällen im Los Alamos National Laboratory einen überkritischen Zustand erreichte. Bei beiden Unfällen starben die auslösenden Wissenschaftler an den Folgen.
The demon core was a sphere of plutonium that was involved in two fatal radiation accidents when scientists tested it as a fissile core of an early atomic bomb. It was manufactured by the Manhattan Project, the U.S. nuclear weapon development effort during World War II.

19. Okt. 2023 · The Demon core is a 6.2 kg Plutonium-Gallium sphere with a diameter of 8.9 cm (smaller than a basketball). The Plutonium-239 isotope used in the core is a manmade element produced in nuclear reactors. It is highly unstable, radioactive, and decays by emitting alpha particles, which is damaging to our tissues.

3. Apr. 2021 · The Chilling Story of The 'Demon Core' And The Scientists Who Became Its Victims : ScienceAlert. Humans 03 April 2021. By Peter Dockrill. (Los Alamos National Laboratory) It was August 13, 1945, and the 'demon core' was poised, waiting to be unleashed onto a stunned Japan still reeling in fresh chaos from the deadliest attacks anyone had ever seen.
Demon Core is a nickname given to a spherical core that was experimented on as a part of the Manhattan Project. The core was involved in two fatal incidents in 1945 and 1946, with one of the incidents caused by severe safety protocol violations as a physicist let a screwdriver, with which a beryllium hemisphere was held, slip.
