Operation Sun Beam, Shots Little Feller II and Johnie Boy. Project Officer's report - Project 2. 16. Residual radiation in the crater and crater-lip area of low-yield nuclear devices

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7248873
The objective of this project was to obtain information about the residual radiation environment in the crater and crater-lip area resulting from the employment of low-yield fission weapons. The information needed specifically was (1) the change in intensity with time; (2) the change in mean-gamma-energy level with time; and (3) the activity-level variation with depth in the soil.
