Wikipedia has many lists about nuclear accidents - the "mother" of all those articles might be this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lists_of_nuclear_disasters_and...

It points to other sub-lists and some of them have links to sub-sub-articles that explain what happened in a specific case, for example this one:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_and_radiation_accident...

Unluckily not all lists have always a link available to the detailed article, so for example in the case of the SL-1 accident ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SL-1 ) you'll find the link to the details only in this other list:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_military_nuclear_accid...

Reading about the details has always been very interesting for me as I love everything involving cause/effect.
