The experimenters gained a wealth of data and experience on reactor operations that still form the basis of nuclear operations practiced today. The companion paper in this issue by Hutchinson et al. 4 describes other fast critical assembly work that occurred at Los Alamos during the Manhattan Project. II.

Critical Assembly Simulator v.1.1. by Alex Wellerstein, 2015. The red atoms split when hit by neutrons (fission). The blue atoms absorb the neutrons. Can you get all of the red atoms to split? Click on an atom to cause it to fission. Click the "initiator" button to shoot a few neutrons into the center.
