DIFF Subclass Not Allocatable
G21J

NUCLEAR EXPLOSIVES; APPLICATIONS THEREOF (electric or magnetic analogue computers, e.g. simulators, for nuclear physics G06G7/54)

Introduced: September 1968

Description

G21J covers nuclear explosive devices and their practical applications. This includes designs for nuclear weapons, thermonuclear devices, and related triggering or detonation mechanisms. The classification also encompasses peaceful applications of nuclear explosions, such as industrial excavation, seismic research, or mineral extraction where controlled nuclear detonation is employed. Related classified research on nuclear weapon design itself typically falls within national security restrictions rather than patent literature.
