For a conference I am running, I have concocted the following scenario.
Evil terrorists have 11 lbs of Strontium-90
Good guys drop 4 bombs on the building housing the Sr-90, collapsing it and distributing the material
I know this will require rough numbers, just please help as you can
what would the likely radiation levels be at ground Zero?
How about at a given range (1 km)?
Would anyone die of radiation poisoning in the immediate area, if so, within what radius
what lasting health effects would be observed in the local population?
Thanks for any help you can give,
CC
