Fission Products Vary in Nature, Intensity,

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. .

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

bihionths of an oice.
