ABSTRACT (Continue on reverse side if necessary end identify by block number)
Project 2.9 participated in Shot Quince and Shot Fig with the following objectives:
(1) to document the initial gamma dose versus ground range and (2) to measure the
total gamma dose received at a point as a function of time, at distances of
military interest, for a fractional-kiloton nuclear surface burst. Project 2.12b
participated in Shot Hamilton and Shot Humboldt with the following objectives:
(1) to provide gamma-dose measurements in support of the biomedical Project 4.2 and
(2) to document the initial gamma dose versus ground range.
