Abstract: A dose was estimated to be 120 r.

in 24 hours or 270 r.

in 13

days when calculated according to t/sup -1/ /sup 2/; pr 240 r. in 24

hours or 440 r. in 13 days when calculated according to t/sup -1/ /sup
4/, observed value of decay, and supposing exposure to the radiation
began 6 hours after the explosion had occurred on Bikini.;

Country of Origin: United States
Abstract: After detonation of a thermonuclear device in the Marshall
Islands in the spring of 1954, radioactive fall-out occurred over an
area of thousands of square miles beyond the range of thermal*and blast
injury. Marshallese and Americans were accidently exposed on Islands in
the area, receiving whole-body radiation, beta radiation injury to
