The "gadget", partially assembled on the shot tower for the Trinity test.
"The gadget" was the code-name given to the first nuclear explosive developed under the Manhattan Project during World War II which was tested at the "Trinity" test on July 16, 1945.
It was so-called because it was not a deployable weapon, and because revealing words like "bomb" were not used during the project for fear of being overheard by those not aware of the project's purpose and promoting speculation or aiding in espionage.

Amazon.fr : The Gadget: Livres en anglais: Paul Zindel
The greatest strength of The Gadget is how Paul Zindel communicates, in clear and simple prose, how terribly uncertain many of those "in the know" were about dropping the atom bomb, and the idea that no one--not even top scientists--could really predict what the outcome would be.
