Background |
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 statistics, computer graphics
and other related fields.
Hiroshima City has been
carrying out a series of surveys in an effort to draw a complete
and more realistic picture of the A-bombing and its impact on the
people there at the time of the explosion. As a part of its efforts,
the City set up HiSoF to facilitate further studies and discussion
on this issue.
Incorporating the latest
data and modeling, Hiroshima City is planning to conduct a re-assessment
of local fallout and "black rain" resulting from the A-bombing,
using a chemical transport model based on a re-constructed meteorological
field, re-estimation of heat flux and fire field, and other relevant
approaches, if some modelers agree to do this.
