The Dirty Bomb is a low-damage explosive that leaves a large zone of Radiation Sickness for a short time. Usage A Dirty Bomb can be placed and then be remotely detonated using a Detonator. A Dirty Bomb can also be loaded inside Railgun shells. Trivia A Dirty Bomb has a recipe, whi...
A dirty bomb鈥攎ore precisely, a radiological dispersion bomb (RDB)鈥攊s a relatively unsophisticated device that combines radioactive materials with conventional explosives. When exploded, such a device scatters radioactive particles into the environment. Anyone within the initial blast radius will ...
“suitcase bomb”. One of these portable nuclear bombs had an explosive charge of one kiloton, equivalent to one thousand tons of TNT. If a device like this made its way to the U.S. it could destroy everything within a half-mile radius of the Capitol in Washington, D.C. Within ...
In a first assessment, we assumed that the total radioactivity contained in the bomb is dispersed in a right circular cylinder with the height corresponding to the height of the plume (30.5 m) and the base formed by a circle with the detonation point in the center and with a radius of 15...
From Academy Award® winning directors Rob Epstein and Jeffrey Friedman (Best Documentary, Features, Common Threads: Stories from the Quilt, 1989) comes the harrowing true story Lovelace, debuting on Blu-ray™ and DVD on November 5th from Anchor Bay Entertainment and RADiUS-twc. The true ...
cordon of a 500-meter radius "high zone," an area within which serious health effects such as acute radiation doses would be situated sheltering is not a critical countermeasure, nor shutting down a building's ventilation system, as some systems can filter to 90 percent of the radioactive pa...
Looks at the threat of radioactive dirty bombs. Observation that a strategically placed atomic bomb in Washington D.C. would produce a 98 percent casualty rate within a four-to-five mile radius; Nuclear bombs and caches of radioactive material around the world; Comment from Ralph James of ...
