Establishing RIPDLIPI Lethality Tables for the General Population

Abstract

This report describes the modification of the Radiation Induced Performance Decrement Lethality Injury Probability Interpolation (RIPDLIPI) 3.0 software to include lookup tables (LUTs) for calculating lethality for general populations. The previous versions of RIPDLIPI were designed to calculate probability of lethality from nuclear fallout for military populations. The current work makes the RIPDLIPI 3.0 software applicable to a wider range of modeling tasks. The new lethality LUTs have the same format as the legacy lethality LUTs and can be used with the existing RIPDLIPI 3.0 software. We discuss the methodology for the creation and verification of these tables, and briefly describe the use of the new tables within the existing HPAC infrastructure.
