Project 2.1b staffing was apparently interrelated with,
although somewhat separate from, the rest of the NRL experiments
(Projects 2.la, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, and 2.6).
In the project report
seven NRL civilians were cited as being primarily responsible for
carrying out the KING experiments.
Of the seven, only four appear
on the Consolidated List and their dosimetry is shown in Table 4.4.
Project Report:
Project 2.2 - Timing of the Fission Phase
COpy
Project 2.3 - Rise of the Fusion Reaction
Project 2.4 - Propagation of the Fusion Reaction
Agency:
Naval Research Laboratory (NRL)
Operations:
Gamma rays from the MIKE detonation passed 9,000 feet
through the helium-filled flume to instruments in Station 202 on
Boken Island.
Signals from these instruments were then
transmitted by wire to recorders in Station 200 nearby (IPO 132#2,
pp. B-3 and B-4).
For recovery, see under Project 2.6 below.
Radiation Exposure Potential:
Staffing:
Same potential as Project 2.1la.
See Project 2.6.
