Operation HARDTACK. Neutron Flux from Very-Low-Yield Bursts

Abstract

The objectives of these projects were to: (1) measure neutron flux and dose j versus ground range for very-low-yield (fractional-kiloton) nuclear devices; (2) measure neutron, thermal, and gamma radiation up to an altitude of 1,500 feet; (3) provide dose measurements in support of a biomedical project (Project 4.2); 1 and (4) determine neutron flux and spectrum for induced-activity studies (Project 2.12c)
