Bound with: "A Report by the United States Atomic Energy Commission on the Effects if High-Yield Nuclear Explosions" 6lvs+13 lvs. All offset (or perhaps mimeographed). Staple bound Fine condition. [++] From the paper: "At a news conference on December 17, 1954, I stated that the staff of the Atomic Energy Commission was studying the subject of fallout and expressed the hope that information about it would be made public at a later date. out" is the word now applied to a phenomenon that follows the explosion of a nuclear weapon. Such an explosion, if the fireball touch es the surface of the earth, draws up large amounts of materials into the bomb cloud. These materials subsequently fall back to earth as radioactive particles Over a large area, mostly down-wind and relatively close to the point of explosion- although the lighter particles are carried gre at distances. The main radioactivity of fallout decreases very rapidly with time- for the most part, within the first hours after the explosion. An in-the-air explosion where the firębąll does not touch the earths surface does not produce any serious radiological fallout hazard. Since nuclear weapons are in possession of the USSR. the Commission believes the American people wish to be in- formed regarding the dangers of nuclear explosions and the measures which individuals can take to protect themselves if an atomic attack should ever occur. Therefore, the Com- mission has condensed in the attached Report the information which can be made public at this time on the effects of the explosions of high-yield nuclear weapons.".…
