A Joint Interagency Working Group JIWG under the auspices of the Department of Homeland Security Office of Research and Development conducted a technology assessment of emergency radiological dose assessment capabilities as part of the overall need for rapid emergency medical response in the event of a radiological terrorist event in the United States. The goal of the evaluation is to identify gaps and recommend general research and development needs to better prepare the Country for mitigating the effects of such an event. Given the capabilities and roles for responding to a radiological event extend across many agencies a consensus of gaps and suggested development plans was a major goal of this evaluation and road-mapping effort. The working group consisted of experts representing the Departments of Homeland Security Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health Food and Drug Administration Department of Defense and the Department of Energy's National Laboratories see appendix A for participants. The specific goals of this Technology Assessment and Roadmap were to: 1 Describe the general context for deployment of emergency radiation dose assessment tools following terrorist use of a radiological or nuclear device; 2 Assess current and emerging dose assessment technologies; and 3 Put forward a consensus high-level technology roadmap for interagency research and development in this area. This report provides a summary of the consensus of needs gaps and recommendations for a research program in the area of radiation dosimetry for early response followed by a summary of the technologies available and on the near-term horizon. We then present a roadmap for a research program to bring present and emerging near-term technologies to bear on the gaps in radiation dose assessment and triage. Finally we present detailed supporting discussion on the nature of the threats we considered the status of technology today promising emerging technologies and references for further reading.

First printingof this milestone paper in which the strong nuclear forces are mentioned for the first time."It was only in 1921 that Chadwick had first shown that at very small distances the interactions of alpha particles with the atomic nucleus did not follow exactly the inverse square law predicted from the repulsion of their positive electrical scharges. Chadwick concluded that his experiments showed that these nuclear forces are of "very great intensity". According to Pais this is THE FIRST PUBLISHED STATEMENT ABOUT THE EXISTENCE OF A STRONG NUCLEAR FORCE. This 'new force' interpretation was disputed untill well into 1920s."Hey & Walters."In any event Chadwick and Bieler's final conclusion avoid all reference to a possible electromagnetic cause for the deviations from the simple theory: "The present experiments do not seem to throw any light on the nature of the law of variation of the forces at the seat of an electric charge but merely show that the forces are of very great intensity. It is our task to find some field of force which will reproduce these effects." I consider this statement made in 1921 as marking the birth of the strong interaction."Pais in "Inward Bound" p. 240. unknown

COver has some wear and soiling. ix 1 . 193 1 p. References. Diagrams. Maps. Illustrations. Index. Most of the earth's population would survive the immediate horrors of a nuclear holocaust but what long-term climatological changes would affect their ability to secure food and shelter This sobering book considers the effects of fine dust from ground-level detonations of smoke from widespread fires and of chemicals released into the atmosphere. The authors use mathematical models of atmospheric processes and data from natural situations-e.g. volcanic eruptions and arctic haze-to draw their conclusions. This is the most detailed and comprehensive probe of the scientific evidence published to date. National Academies Press paperback

1979ref. 87716Washington DC: Defense Nuclear Agency 1979. Preliminary Draft. Comb binding. Fair. iii 60 pages some pages have multiple page numbers used with designation of "a" 'b' etc. These added pages appear to be solely used for illustrations. Pages printed on one side only. Cover has some wear and soiling. There is a blank page between pages 21 and 22. Illustrations/figures/tables. Maps. Tabular data. Ink notation at bottom of front cover. Pencil correction on page iii. replacing 'demolition' with 'detonation'. Pencil notations on pages 14 17 18 46 and 59. There appear to have been no pages 15 and 16 as the text flows seamlessly from page 14 to page 17. The text moves from page 32 through 32a to 33 b. There is a gap before page 34 indicating a missing page 33 and illustration 33a. It is not unusual for there to be areas where the document appears incomplete as this is stated as a preliminary draft and it is possible some text and illustration were removed pending resolution of potential concerns regarding information classification. The Department of Defense led the radiological cleanup of Enewetak Atoll in the Marshall Islands. The combined federal effort cost about $100 million and required an on-atoll task force numbering almost 1000 people for three years 1977-1980. The departments of Defense Energy and Interior were involved in this project. The DOD organized three separate efforts in support of the cleanup: Removal and lagoon-dumping of uncontaminated debris and structures removal and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated debris and structures and excision and crater-entombment of radiological contaminated soil from the islands. This document is not listed/identified on the ENEWETAK ATOLL CLEANUP DOCUMENTS web page which is an official U.S. Government web page supported by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. This chapter discusses Operation Sandstone Rehabilitation and Construction Activities Operation Greenhouse Operation Ivy Operation Castle Operation Redwing Operation Hardtack Moratorium and provides a Summary of Test Effects. There is a discussion of the Effects of Test Program on 26 individual islands. There is a discussion of the effect of Atoll experience on cleanup. and the final portion addresses Enewetak Interim 1958-1972 and Projects Hues Pace and Expo. An example of the information content is from pages 31 and 32: "Fallout from 16 events caused Eleleron to be ranked second of all islands of the atoll in H-1 hour exposure having accumulated 10643 R/hr. Most of the land mass receiving this exposure has been blasted or eroded away. Soil sampling showed surface activity to be relatively low and the one profile sample displayed a homogeneous distribution with depth this being considered to be the result of hydraulic influences."
