unfractionated debris by Freiling, Crocker and Adams (Fr64), which did
not include neutron-induced nuclides.

In the calculations of the

compositions of Harry and Smoky fallout, only two neutron-induced
nuclides contributed more than 1% to the external gamma-ray exposure,
namely, 239Ny from 1 to 15 days, up to 20%, and 609 from 2 to 15
years, up to 10%.

A check of the Nevada Test Site data for 25 Events

(tower shots, balloon shots, and air bursts) showed (though not for
every Event) that contributions of more than 1% to the total gamma-ray
levels were due to only three neutron-induced nuclides, 60¢, 237
and 232M

CURIES OF FISSION PRODUCTS PER KILOTON OF FISSION YIELD

From information given by Glasstone and Dolan (G177, p. 390), one
can deduce that 1 kiloton of fission produces about 1.5 x 10’ curies
of fission products 24 hr postshot.
should be considered as an update.
