radioactivity resulting and on the fallout produced
1. Air bursts.
2, Ground or surface bursts
oe
3. Underground bursts
4, Underwater bursts
VI. Atmospheric Transport, Storage, and Removal of Particulate
Radioactivity (oral, inserts, bibliography)
A, The types of fallout defined and described, and the
conditions under’ which each type 1s produced - physical
characteristics of particles, cloud formation, condensation,
etc,
B. Local fallout
1, The predictability of local fallout
a.
Theory of predicting fallout
do. Models of radioactivity within the cloud
(both Nevada and PPG), dependence on type
and yield of weapon and type of scavenging
material
Meteorological transport, examples of
fallout under different winds, and in
massive attacks
- Uncertainites in model and meteorology
e.
f.
Weathering and redeposition of particles
Decay
2. Observed patterns of local fallout
a.
Patterns of external radiation in Nevada
and the PPG
b. Radiation levels as a function of time.
