Nuclear Notes is a publication of the CSIS Project on Nuclear
Issues (PONI) featuring innovative thinking by rising experts in
the nuclear field. Its goal is to advance the public debate about
nuclear weapons strategy, arms control, nonproliferation,
disarmament, and other nuclear issues by providing a forum for
sharing new analysis and insight. In particular, this publication
seeks to provide an opportunity for graduate students and early
career professionals to publish ideas emanating from their
independent research or that are connected to their unique vantage
point as analysts and implementers of nuclear policy.
The 2013 class of Nuclear Scholars, selected from a very
competitive applicant pool, contained some of the best and
brightest young professionals in the nuclear field. Drawn from
graduate programs, the national labs, the civil service, and the
U.S. military, these Nuclear Scholars participated in six monthly
workshops that focused on a wide range of nuclear topics. These
topics included extended deterrence and assurance, stockpile
stewardship, nuclear materials security, Iranian and North Korean
proliferation, international nonproliferation norms and treaties,
missile defense, and nuclear targeting. The program culminated in a
final meeting at which the Nuclear Scholars presented their own
research to a panel of senior experts. The papers resulting from
these presentations are contained in this year s volume."

The Center for Strategic and International Studies launched the
Project on Nuclear Issues (PONI) in 2003 in order to revitalize and
strengthen a community of nuclear weapons experts whose training
and background increasingly emphasize multidisciplinary expertise,
especially among younger generations. In support of this goal, the
PONI conference series was created to provide a forum for
facilitating new and innovative thinking on how to address the
evolving role of nuclear weapons in international security and to
gather people from across the policy and technical communities to
discuss key issues. The 2012 conference series included events at
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory in April, Los Alamos National
Laboratory in June, and the Center for Strategic and International
Studies in October, before concluding with a Capstone Conference at
Offutt Air Force Base, home of the U.S. Strategic Command, in
March. The papers included in this volume are a collection of some
of the presentations delivered at the Capstone Conference. Spanning
a wide range of technical and policy issues, these selected papers
hope to further discussion in their respective areas, as well as
contribute to the success of the greater nuclear community.
