The following 10 markets cover a range of scenarios involving nuclear weapons tests and detonations in general. Taken as a whole, they seem to suggest some highly correlated risks; this market is an attempt to more directly assess the correlation between them. How many will resolve positively?

This is a derivative market; it will resolve exactly according to the resolution of the underlying markets. A resolution of N/A is not a "positive" resolution.

This has a similar intended structure to enable mechanical arbitrage. However, the correlation structure is different. In particular, it seems unlikely that exactly one question will resolve positively: if any nuclear weapon is detonated, the first question should resolve positively. If that one resolves positively, then it seems hard to imagine it not being a test, an accident, or in combat.
