Subfile: TIC (Technical Information Center). Country of Origin: United States Abstract: Hazards from /sup 90/Sr deposited in fallout following nuclear explosions are reviewed. Strontium/sup 90/ is of particular interest among the fission products because of chemical similarity to Ca, an average life of about 40 years, and a low rate of skeletal elimination. The maximum permissible average concentration of /sup 90/Sr in the adult skeleton is calculated to be 1..mu..c/1000 gm of Ca.; Major Descriptors: *FALLOUT -- GLOBAL ASPECTS; *NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS -FALLOUT; *STRONTIUM 930 -- ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE PATHWAY; *THERMONUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS -- FALLOUT Descriptors: ANIMALS; CALCIUM; CASTLE PROJECT; FISSION PRODUCTS; FOOD CHAINS; FORECASTING; GLOBAL FALLOUT; MAN; MILK; PLANTS; RADIATION DOSES ; RADIATION HAZARDS; RAIN; REGIONAL ANALYSIS; SKELETON; SOILS; STRONTIUM Broader Terms: ALKALINE EARTH ISOTOPES; ALKALINE EARTH METALS; ANIMALS; ATMOSPHERIC PRECIPITATIONS; BETA DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; BETA-MINUS DECAY RADIOISOTOPES; BIOLOGICAL MATERIALS; BODY; BODY FLUIDS; DOSES; ELEMENTS ; EVEN-EVEN NUCLEI; EXPLOSIONS; FALLOUT; FOOD; HAZARDS; HEALTH HAZARDS; INTERMEDIATE MASS NUCLEI; ISOTOPES; MAMMALS; MATERIALS; METALS; NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS; NUCLEI; ORGANS; PRIMATES; RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS; RADIOISOTOPES; STRONTIUM ISOTOPES; VERTEBRATES; YEARS LIVING RADIOISOTOPES tubject Categories: 500300* -- Environment, Atmospheric -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- (-1989) 510302 -- Environment, Terrestrial -- Radioactive Materials Monitoring & Transport -- Terrestrial Ecosystems & Food Chains -- (-1987) 10/5/852 00703062 (Item 552 from file: 103) EDB-81-011312 Title: Results of atmospheric analyses done at Tulsa, Oklahoma, during the period neighboring the time of the second Bikini atomic bomb test Author(s): Fearson, R.E.; Engle, W.; Thayer, J.; Swift, Source: Phys.

Country of Origin: United States Abstract: Radioactive concentrates were prepared from the atmosphere. Data of July 26 and August 30, 1946, represent the active deposits of Rn and Tn. The data of July 28, based on two samples with initial intensities of 5 x 10/sup -10/ curie, are explained by assuming that the concentrate is the active deposit of a new rare radioactive gas of at. no. 86, with a half-life of 82 min.; it corresponds with at members of an unreported radioactive series.; least two .
