Fission Products Vary in Nature, Intensity, Duration of Their individual Radiations Editor' not: Following is tfc sec ond of thr? dpatrh on the fmion pwnrl j-oHon, !doactive stron-tium-94. By JOSEPH L. MYLER United Press Correspondent Washington ;UR. The ex plosion of an ordinary A-bomb creates 2.2 pounds of "fission products" as intensely radioac tive for one minute at one mil lion tons of radium. ' This country is believed to have exploded as least one giant bomb whose radioactivity for 60 seconds was 500 times "hot ter" than that. These fission products vary in the nature, intensity, and duration of their individual radiations. Some of the "hottest" decay to harmlessness in less than a millionth of a second. Some go on spitting rays for thousands of years. The. overall intensity of an or dinary A-bomb's radioactivities falls oft quickly with time. An hour -after the' explosion it is equal to 6,000 tons of radium after one-, day, 130 tons; one week, 13 tons; one year, - one tenth of a ton.' SR 80 Long Life . " Radioactive strontium-90 has a fairly lo.ng- career as a ray emitter. Its half-life is 28 years. That means half the atoms in any amount of the- stuff will dis charge their radiations in that time, half of the remainder in the next, 24 "years, and so on. This and' a lot" more about SR90 is known because it has been closely studied since, the start of the U. S. atomic project. .

(International SounAphoto) SHADY COVE-TRAIL . Couple in Auto Accident ' non-instantaneous radioactivity is spread by fallout the de scent to earth. of "hot" particles which, have been carried aloft.! To ' over-simplify it. there are. three kinds of fallout: . I The' heavier particles come down first, in a matter of hours, as "local fallout."- Then there is "worldwide tro pospheric fallout." Particles re maining in the troposphere the weather region of the atmos phere below 50,000 feet may be carried around the world a couple . of times before settling out in- weeks or months." Rain could bring it down sooner, in days. This fallout affects only the band of the planet in which the test, site is situated. ' Gradually Drift Down A third kind is "worldwide j stratospheric layout. it is caused by weapons powerful enough to hurl the bulk of their radioactivities into the high atmosphere above the weather,- or by weapons of whatever Size fired at great heights. These radioactivities are dis tributed .with remarkable uni formity over the globe in the form of particles about the size of a -vims molecule. Gradually they' drift down into the tropos phere and thence, carried by rain or snow, to the earth. Global fallout from a given test remains suspended in the stratosphere for years 10 on the average. It has been detected in all latitudes, and north to the Arctic and south to the Antarc tic: Finely distributed as SR90 is. its detection is possible because radiation instruments are so sen sitive they can spot fewer "hot" atoms that it would take to make a dot so tiny it could be seen only under a microscope; . Local and tropospheric fall out are intensified by surface or near surface shots which pick up a lot of dirt. Global fallout is intensified by high explosions" which, scooping up no heavy particles, put most of their poisons into the stratosphere. Radiation, hazards- are from without or within, external or internal. They do genetic damage (to the reproductive germ cells, thus affecting future' genera tions. or somatic damage) to the body of the individual victim, affecting only-hlm, or both. SR90 Penetrates Only highly penetrating rays are much of an external menace. Only rays which hit or pass near the germ cells cause genetic damage. The worst internal haz ards are those enduring radioac tivities which easily find their way into the body as a result, say, of eating, drinking, or breathing contaminated food, water, or air and stay there long enough to .cause .harm. SR90 U and 'does all that. . "As a general rule, low explo sions create the greatest genetic menace because their penetrating radioactivities settle out and come, in contact with people while the particles are still "hot" enough to' hurt. High bursts, or explosions powerful enough to penetrate the stratosphere,, are not. much of a genetic threat. Their, pen etrating radiations have greatly -Wednesday, December 5, 1956 o MEDFORD OREGON) MAlEoTRIBUNE TH&EE subsided by fallout time, and those left do not reach the re productive organs in dangeroui amounts. But though it is not considered a global genetic threat, radio strontiuru's" potency as a cancer causing 'agent is not diminished appreciably by long fallout time. Its . half-life of 28 years is so great that the' slow rate of global' fallout makes little difference By the time it gets down, and for long afterward, it is still active. Concentrates in Bones ' SR90 is .chemically 'like cal ciunij the bone-building ele ment. So it concentrates in "the bones. Like' calcium, it also is present in animal milk. Its radia tion' is not the deeply penetrat ing kind. But it can cause bone cancer and may also induce leu kemia, "cancer of the blood." Radicstrontium .settles on plants leaves and the soil,' and so gets into vegatables .and animal feed. Every time you eat a vegetable plate, drink a glass of milk, or nibble a bit of cheese you take in some SR90. No -one on earth can keep it out of his system. But as Dr. Willard P.- Libby of the Atomic Energy Commis sion has said, "A man is not a sheep." He doesn't feed exclu sively on grass. Libby was fig ured -out this soil-to-man ratio: For a given amount of SR80 in the-soil, one-third will get in the grass, oneeighth into the cow, and one-twenty-fourth into .the human, being. Scientists of the world (in a body called the International Commission on Radiological Pro tection) have calculated what they call the "maximum permis sible concentration" (MPC) of SR90 for persons, such as atomic a personal) MPC ol less than 25 bihionths of an oice.
