  • Title: Additional calculations of radionuclide production following nuclear explosions and Pu isotopic ratios for Nevada Test Site events.
    Author: Hicks HG.
    Journal: Health Phys; 1990 Nov; 59(5):515-23. PubMed ID: 2211111.
    Abstract:
    A method is reviewed for calculating dry ground deposition of any radionuclide in off-site fallout from a nuclear explosion. Calculations are in agreement with measurements. A list of all calculations to date is presented, along with how to obtain copies. In addition, a table of ratios of 240Pu:239Pu and 241Pu:239Pu for NTS explosions is included.
