Nuclear Test Release Experience Fitted to a Mathematical Function for Scaled Depth of Burial and Radii of Burial

摘要

Over 500 nuclear events in the LLNL Nuclear Test Effects and Geologic Data Base have been included in determining the percentage of releases versus scaled depth of burial and radii of burial. Only events considered to have a built-in release path were excluded. A good fit to the function y = y sub 0 e/sup -cx/ was obtained for both the SDOB and ROB containment parameters. 2 figs.
