The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from U. S. Project Trinity Report by Carl Maag and Steve Rohrer: gamma intensity of about 15 R/h. Five hours later, the intensity had
decreased to 3.8 R/h. It was estimated that peak intensities of gamma
radiation from fallout on shot-day were about 7 R/h at an occupied
ranch house in this canyon area (1; 11; 19).
Monitoring teams resurveyed these towns about one month after the
TRINITY detonation. At Bingham, gamma readings of 0.003 R/h and
0.0001 R/h were found at ground level outdoors and at waist level
inside a building, respectively. At the town of White, the highest
outdoor gamma reading was 0.008 R/h. Inside a building, the highest
reading was 0.0005 R/h (11).
