The Nagasaki reinforced concrete building dose calculations

Description

The determination of radiation dose to personnel in the concrete buildings at Nagasaki is an important step in understanding the effects of radiation on personnel. The strategy was to calculate the sources of neutron and gamma radiation from the weapon, to calculate the intensity of radiation outside the buildings, to calculate the dose in the cells of a computational gridwork inside the building, and then to interpolate in this gridwork to find the dose at the position of each person. 5 figs., 3 tabs
