Abstract:

The volume of the DELFIC Defense Land Fallout Interpretive Code documentation describes the Particle Activity Module. This module computes the distribution of fission-product and induced activities as a function of fallout particle size. Fractionation is accounted for by a modified radial-distribution model. Radioactive decay is computed from the Bateman equation.
