19. ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse if necessary and identify by block number)
The high-resolution ultraviolet and visible spectra of typical test nuclear detonations
up to and including Operation Ivy have been analyzed and compared. Topics studied include
the types of atomic and molecular material observed (with calculations, in some cases, of
the relative quantities involved), the ultraviolet cutoff, and rotational temperatures.
Variation of these quantities with the radiochemical yield of the bomb is indicated.
