Lab tests simulate atomic blast burns at Virginia college
In Richmond, Laboratory workers at the Medical College of Virginia burn themselves with a heat beam to simulate the flash of an atomic bomb. More than a dozen scientists and aides, including a woman doctor, expose arms to a beam from a powerful searchlight to study skin burns and compare results with early bomb models. Grants from the Army Surgeon General fund the tests, which show maximum burning can occur in a second, debunking the idea that quick ducking avoids harm.
