LONDON (Reuters) -- Euro- pean scientists today reported another Soviet nuclear blast in the Arctic with an estimated pies of between 15 and 30 meg- atons.

Piegza estimated that the ex- plosion occurred at 8:30 a.m.-- about the same time of day as Russia set off its massive bomb Monday. A spokesman for the British Atomic Energy Authority said signals had also been recorded there which could have come from "a fairly large nuclear weapon."'
