Very interesting report about how US DOE facilities, including Livermore and Oak Ridge didn’t just model out Iran’s nuclear program, but duplicated aspects of it and came up with ways to transition it from a potential nuclear weapons facility to a research oriented one. They also worked on reconfiguring an Iranian nuclear reactor so that it would not be able to produce plutonium without reconfigurations that would be noticeable.
