[ RadSafe ] Article on nuclear and radiologica terrorism

[Alessandro Tofani]

Hello,
just to inform you that my paper "Ranking Nuclear and Radiological Terrorism Scenarios: the Italian Case" has been published on the October 2008 issue of Risk Analysis - Vol. 28(5), pp. 1431-1443. The link to the abstract is: http://www3.interscience.wiley.com/journal/121371104/abstract
This work presents a criterion to rank nuclear and radiological terrorism scenarios based on the balance between factors favoring and discouraging the attack. It is focused on the Italian reality (lack of nuclear power plants, densely populated cities with high symbolic and artistic value) but can be applied to any known scenario.
