Summary Following the dramatic 'demonstration' of implosion devices to create a supercritical nuclear core and subsequent explosions physicists continued looking for alternative ways to reach criticality. One effective approach was to reflect neutrons released during fission back on the nuclear core. But lab technique was sloppy and two prominent scientists received massive does of radiation after their slips and died within days of exposure.
