New measurement and assessment techniques have been applied to the radiochemical reevaluation of the Trinity Event. Thirteen trinitite samples were dissolved and analyzed using a combination of traditional decay counting methods and the mass spectrometry techniques. The resulting data were assessed using advanced simulation tools to afford a final yield determination of 24.8 ± 2 kt TNT equivalent, substantially higher than the previous U.S. Department of Energy released value of 21 kt.
