Abstract
The measurement of the specific gravity of the highly radioactive fallout particles from the third Chinese nuclear test explosion was made. The specific gravity ranged from 5.2 to 6.5 and there was a tendency that the specific gravity increased with increasing darkness of the particle color. In connection with the results obtained by the electron microprobe analyses made previously, it was assumed that the specific gravity increased with increasing ratio of iron to aluminium in the matrix materials.Keywords
