Abstract: The following photographic activities on Operation Ivy were
carried out: (1) Determine fireball yield from high-speed cameras and
Rapatronics.

(2)

Record cloud-rise and -drift phenomena.

(3)

Determine

luminous emittance of the fireball. (4) Determine time to the minimum
by means of Bhangmeters. (5) Determine position of burst for King shot.
(6) Record mortar and gun bursts for J-10. (+7) Record water wave from
Mike shot. (8) Record smoke rocket trails on King shot. (9) Record the

television monitor screen on Mike shot from M-1 hr to zero time. (10)
In addition, an experimental GMX-9 camera, an experimental Telescopic
Rapatronic camera, and an image-converter camera were tested.

Abstract: This report presents the results of the work of personnel of the
Argonne National Laboratory, the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, and
the University of California Radiation Laboratory on the heavy nuclides
formed in the detonation of the Mike bomb of Operation Ivy. Many
problems in the identification of the atomic number and mass number of
the activities found in the debris have not yet been solved and,
indeed, may well require another year of work on the debris before firm
assignments are obtained. This report offers an interim statement of
the conclusions which are available as a result of the primary work on
the debris.
