The continued development of science, engineering, and technology to support nonproliferation policy is instrumental in allowing states to verify compliance with nonproliferation treaties, providing effective and efficient ways to implement domestic and international nuclear safeguards, and preventing non-state actors from developing nuclear weapons or acquiring weapons-usable nuclear or radiological material, equipment, technology, and expertise. This technical session will focus on new research that supports different aspects of nonproliferation policy.
