Further, the calculated doses are dependent on any protection or shielding that was provided by buildings in which they stayed until they were evacuated. (1) Free-Field Radiation on Rongerik Based on the available data, the free-field radiation environment on wheno be is ao pa ®UUaD estimated as follows: i ras pec For times greater than 48 hours after burst, the radiation decay Kiowed at -1.5 decay rate. From the radiation intensity of ¥28 R/hr measured on Rongerik on 10 March (about 216 hours after burst), the intensity at 48 hours after burst (1, 9) iss l4g = Jor6 (216/48)4*? = 2.67 R/hr 5 Similarly, from Ing and the radiation decay according to 177819 between 10 and a 48 hours after detonation, the intensity after cessation of fallout through the time of evacuation is: ny a y J, l= Iyg (ug/tyet> - 2.67 (4g /t)el? ~ 62.7 478) During fallout deposition, this decay applies to landed fallout particles (the change in decay exponent at 10 hours is too early in the deposition to noticeably affect the calculations). Thus, it is necessary to determine the fraction of time-normalized activity (or mass, for constant specific activity) deposited with time. This deposition is assumed to occur as a Gaussian (normal) distribution in time, reflecting a similar //?
