Physicist Harotune Krikor Daghlian Jr., known as Harry, joined the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos in 1944 to work with Otto Frisch’s Criticality Assembly Group. He helped transport the plutonium to the Trinity Site for the July 16, 1945 atomic test.

Later that year, back in Los Alamos on August 21, Daghlian was doing a study to reduce the number of tungsten carbide bricks stacked around a plutonium core necessary to reach criticality. Sensors let him know that adding the last brick would cause the system to go supercritical. He accidentally dropped the brick into the assembly, which did go critical. Daghlian tried to knock the brick away but had to remove other bricks to halt the reaction. The result led to severe radiation poisoning, and although he was given intensive medical care, he went into a coma and died on September 15, 1945. This was the first known radiation death in a laboratory setting.

Safety procedures were revised, and designs were begun for remote-controlled test devices. However, a second criticality accident occurred on May 21, 1946, also at Los Alamos, causing the death of Daghlian’s co-worker Louis Slotin. He was using the same plutonium sphere; it became known as the “demon core.”
