Sumario:"In this study, CISAC tackles the technical dimensions of a longstanding controversy: to what extent could existing and plausibly attainable measures for transparency and monitoring make possible the verification of all nuclear weapons strategic and nonstrategic, deployed and nondeployed plus the nuclear-explosive components and materials that are their essential ingredients?
