Purpose
of this website |
The main purpose of this
website is to provide a database and the latest scientific findings

on 6 August 1945, with a view to conducting an inter-laboratory
comparison of model simulations re-constructing local fallout and
black rain.

About
HiSoF in brief |
The Hiroshima Study Group
on Re-construction of Local Fallout from A-bomb in 1945 (HiSoF)
is a group of researchers including meteorologists, radiobiologists,
nuclear engineers, as well as experts in medicine, statistics and
other related fields. Hiroshima City invited researchers to perform
studies and re-examine the effects of local fallout and "black
rain" resulting from the explosion of the Hiroshima atomic
bomb.
