Introduction to Gas Centrifuges Part II
Houston Wood explains how gas centrifuges separate isotopes. He also discusses the functioning of a uranium enrichment cascade. He describes the different sections of a cascade, and how the isotopes circulate between the centrifuges, introducing the notion of separative work. He finally provides some technical data on the production of highly enriched uranium.
