DEVICE FOR TRACING RADIOACTIVE CONTAMINATION

Abstract

Using a special ruler, together with reference data, it is possible to plot on the map the area of radioactive fallout from an above-ground nuclear explosion. The ruler is simple and easy to handle, reduces the time required to evaluate the radioactive conditions, and assures accuracy of calculations. (Author)
