Objective
To obtain gamma rates vs time for various distances

a nuclear detonation.
Instrumentation
Gamma exposure rates were obtained using scintillation
ctors set one foot above ground.

The detector outputs were

réeé as a function of time on continuous recorders.

Instrument stations on Bokobyaadaa and Nama had been
Rr oyed by blast from GBPse:oration, making it impossible
Bp Snstall instrumentation for close-in measurements.
Stations were installed on Airukiiji, Airukiraru and

i Islands, Bikini Atoll, for the detonation of the 7 |

Al! etations operated, and showed negligible gamma
nt

wetes for the period of sero time to plus 36 hours.
