# REDIRECT Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament ( CND ) is an anti-nuclear organisation that advocates unilateral nuclear disarmament by the United Kingdom, international nuclear disarmament and tighter international arms regulation through agreements such as the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

At the end of November, a meeting was held in the rooms of Canon John Collins, chaired by the editor of the New Statesman, Kingsley Martin, to launch the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

It is based on the semaphore symbols for " N " ( two flags held 45 degrees down on both sides, forming the triangle at the bottom ) and " D " ( two flags, one above the head and one at the feet, forming the vertical line ) ( for Nuclear Disarmament ) within a circle.

In 1960 Bertrand Russell resigned from the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament in order to form the Committee of 100, which became, in effect, the direct action wing of CND.

However, several CND members and supporters have stood for election at various times as Independent Nuclear Disarmament candidates.

The nearest CND has come to having an electoral arm was the Independent Nuclear Disarmament Election Campaign ( INDEC ) which stood candidates in a few local elections during the 1960s.

In Britain, his pamphlet Protest and Survive, a parody on the government leaflet Protect and Survive, played a major role in the revived strength of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

Just as important, Thompson was, with Ken Coates, Mary Kaldor and others, an author of the 1980 Appeal for European Nuclear Disarmament, calling for a nuclear-free Europe from Poland to Portugal, which was the founding document of European Nuclear Disarmament.

* 1986 – A nuclear reactor accident occurs at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant in the Soviet Union ( now Ukraine ), creating the world's worst nuclear disaster.

This sample was used to synthesize the element ununseptium for the first time in 2009 at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research, Russia, after it was bombarded with calcium-48 ions for 150 days.

* In The Simpsons episode " Homer at the Bat ", Homer Simpson is hit in the head by a pitch while playing for the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team, rendering him unconscious, but forcing in the winning run.

The synthesis of bohrium was first attempted in 1976 by scientists at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at Dubna using this cold fusion reaction.

Dubnium was reportedly first discovered in 1968 at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at Dubna ( then in the Soviet Union ).

International Day of Nuclear Disarmament protests were held on June 20, 1983 at 50 sites across the United States.

However, since Einstein's death, experiments analogous to the one described in the EPR paper have been carried out, starting in 1976 by French scientists Lamehi-Rachti and Mittig at the Saclay Nuclear Research Centre.

This reaction was reportedly first studied in 1978 by the team at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions ( FLNR ) under the leadership of Yuri Oganessian.

In December 1998, scientists at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research working in Dubna, Russia bombarded plutonium ( Pu ) with calcium ( Ca ) to produce a single atom of element 114 ,< ref > flerovium ( Fl ).

It was first correctly identified in 1966 by scientists at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions in Dubna, Soviet Union.

Following initial work between 1958 – 1964, in 1966, a team at the Flerov Laboratory of Nuclear Reactions ( FLNR ) reported that they had been able to detect < sup > 250 </ sup > Fm from the decay of a parent nucleus (< sup > 254 </ sup > No ) with a half-life of ~ 50s, in contradiction to the Berkeley claim.
