Operation HARDTACK
Gamma Radiation
ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse side If neceasary and identily by block number)
The principal objectives were to measure:
(1) initial-gamma dose rate, (2) total
initial-gamma dose, (3) total neutron dose in low dose regions, and (4) rate of
induced activity decay in soil, all for very-low-yield nuclear bursts. A
secondary objective was to field-test a prototype of the standard Air Force
fallout detector (MG-3).
