Title: Operation Redwing. Project 2.52. Neutron-induced soil radioactivity Corporate Source: Publication Date: Report Number(s): Sandia Corp., Albuquerque, 1 Sep 1985 p 20 NM (USA) AD-A-995412/4/XAB Document Type: Report Language: English Journal Announcement: EDB8611 Availability: NTIS, PC A02/MF AOQl. Subfile: ERA (Energy Research Abstracts). GRA (NTIS NTS) Country of Origin: United States Country of Publication: United States Abstract: Soil samples were exposed to neutron radiation from Shot Cherokee to help establish the importance of neutron-induced residual gamma radiation. After exposure and recovery, the samples had no detectable activity because the slant range to the nearest sample was nearly 3.5 miles, due to an error in bomb drop. After this failure, an experiment was designed in the field for Shot Yuma in order that induced-activity data could be obtained for a soil other than Nevada Test Site soil. Samples of sodium, manganese, and coral sand from Site Sally were exposed above and below the surface at a slant range of 120 yards. The difference between the effects of pure fission and fission-fusion neutron spectra on induced activity in soil was not measured, since the soil samples on Shot Cehrokee were not activated. However, a method for predicting neutron-induced gamma-radiation intensities was tested for coral soil on Shot Yuma. Predicted values were within + or induced dose rates inferred from field measurements.

Subfile: ERA (Energy Research Abstracts). GRA (NTIS NTS) Country of Origin: United States Country of Publication: United States Abstract: Measurements were made to determine the difference in blast effects over a surface covered with low shrubs and grass and over a cleared sahdy surface in the precursor region, and an attempt was made to correlate this difference with measurements of preshock sound speed over the surface. Overpressure was measured with ground-baffle gages and with pivot-static gages at 3-foot elevations. Dynamic pressures 9003 7164
