U.S.–RUSSIAN NUCLEAR COOPERATION AND THE CTBT

Post-Cold War “lab-to-lab” collaborations on unclassified scientific issues between U.S. and Russian nuclear weapons laboratories set the stage for bilateral cooperation in materials control and other nuclear areas. They also became the major element in a cooperative process initiated by a Presidential Decision Directive to ensure Russia's compliance with the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty. These collaborations have always been highly favored by leaders of the Russian nuclear weapons complex—the same leaders who oversee Russia's participation in various government-to-government programs. This article reviews these collaborations and examines the possibility that U.S. rebuffs of Russian proposals and the U.S. failure to keep promises of expanded collaboration could contribute to Russia's reluctance in major programs and even lead to a return to nuclear testing by Russia. The author argues that a renewed U.S. commitment to the process should be an immediate goal of the Obama administration and is an essential step in re-engaging Russia to solve the nuclear problems remaining from the Cold War. Steps for doing so are recommended.     

Nuclear Subsidies and Proliferation: Clarifying the Link

ABSTRACT

In March 2015, the South Australian state government established a royal commission to investigate the financial, social, technical, diplomatic, and nonproliferation benefits and risks of expanding its nuclear industry, including activities related to uranium mining; enriching, reprocessing, and fabricating nuclear fuels for both domestic use and export; producing nuclear power; and storing radiological waste, including foreign spent reactor fuel. Given its enormous uranium reserves and current mining activities, some Australians have argued that Australia could benefit financially by expanding the mining sector and by adding value to its uranium exports by enriching the material and fabricating it into reactor fuel assemblies. Others have maintained that Australia can realize significant economic benefits by recycling and storing foreign spent fuel and producing carbon-free nuclear power. In the end, the commission recommended that Australia consider opening up a high-level waste repository to take in foreign spent fuel. It did not recommend any other nuclear activities at this time. The following viewpoint is based on testimony I delivered to the commission on the nuclear weapon proliferation implications of the proposed activities. If Australia wants to avoid the temptation of selling nuclear goods to states that might use these goods to make bombs, it should only consider new nuclear activities that can be entirely financed by the private sector and turn a profit without having to resort to foreign sales. This policy would also enable Australia to set an important, new international nonproliferation standard.     

基于DPA的LED非线性部件逆向研究

在军事和商业应用中有很多密码算法是半公开或者不公开的,旨在证明算法保密对密码的安全性提高并没有明显帮助．针对轻型分组密码LED的未知非线性部件S盒,提出了一种基于差分功耗分析的逆向方法,该方法可以利用差分功耗曲线的极性信息来恢复未知算法结构．实验结果表明,在LED的S盒参数未知时,利用功耗采集平台采集算法运行时泄露的旁路功耗信息,可以成功逆向出全部s盒信息,验证了该方法的可行性．

部分频带干扰下伪码跟踪误差分析

为精确分析部分频带干扰下伪码跟踪误差,需要考虑伪码的非理想随机特性。引入伪码的精细功率谱模型,对比分析了不同带宽干扰下基于简化谱和精细谱的码跟踪误差。定义了相对误差系数,用以定量描述伪码非理想随机特性对码跟踪误差的影响。当干扰带宽增大时,相对误差系数逐渐减小,伪码非理想随机特性对码跟踪误差的影响逐渐减小,基于简化谱的分析趋近于基于精细谱的分析。结合GPS L1 C/A码,给出了相对误差小于0.2的最小干扰带宽,并将其作为基于简化谱分析的适用条件。研究表明当干扰带宽大于伪码周期的频率的300倍时,伪码非理想随机特性导致的码跟踪精度变化可忽略,反之,则需要基于精细的功率谱模型进行码跟踪精度分析。
