to previously under various conditions. At a temperature of 1400°C, a
fireball from a 10-kt device would cool about 100°C in a second, and
equilibration would never catch up to the falling temperature. For a
10-Mt burst (which is more in the high-yield range for which the treatment was originally designed), the temperature would fall only about
10°C, and the approximation is much more realistic, if still not en-

tirely satisfactory. It should not be surprising, then, if the accuracy of
