Fig. 5—Effect of particle size on fractionation ratio.

SUMMARY

Correlations indicate that the fractionation behavior of ™Sr, *Sr,

Sty '8%cs, 4°Ba, and Ce relative to Zr in silicate-surface bursts

does not differ essentially from that observed in a coral-surface burst

or in air bursts. Differences are noted for °°Mo and 7*Np. For !Ru,
Ru, 1, Te,cs Moe, and 7% Pu, some differences in degree of
fractionation

are indicated, and further study of these nuclides is

recommended.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
In addition to the U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, the Defense
Atomic Support Agency contributed. generously to the support of this
study. Some of the data were obtained from U. S. Air Force sources.
