Glossary. References. Biosketches. The Committee on Dosimetry for the Radiation Effects Research Foundation RERF was set up more than a decade before this publication at the request of the U.S. Department of Energy. It was charged with monitoring work and experimental results related to the Dosimetry System 1986 DS86 used by RERF to reconstruct the radiation doses to the survivors in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. At the time it was established DS86 was believed to be the best available dosimetric system for RERF but questions have persisted about some features especially the estimates of neutrons resulting from the Hiroshima bomb. This book describes the current situation the gamma-ray dosimetry and such dosimetry issues as thermal-neutron discrepancies between measurement and calculation at various distances in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It recommends approaches to bring those issues to closure and sets the stage for the recently convened U.S. and Japan Working Groups that will develop a new dosimetry for RERF. The book outlines the changes relating to DS86 in the past 15 years such as improved numbers that go into and are part of more sophisticated calculations for determining the radiations from bombs that reach certain distances in air and encourages incorporation of the changes into a revised dosimetry system. The Radiation Effects Research Foundation RERF is a joint U.S.-Japan research organization responsible for studying the medical effects of radiation and associated diseases in humans for the welfare of the survivors and all humankind. The organization is located in Hiroshima Japan. The studies have been going on for 70 years which makes RERF the only institution that has been conducting epidemiological studies on a population of more than 120000 individuals for this long. RERF continues to conduct research until this day because the effects of A-bomb radiation on human health have not been fully elucidated. RERF conducts research in multiple fields of science including epidemiology clinical medicine genetics and immunology. Findings from RERF's studies have been used not only for the medical care and welfare of the A-bomb survivors but also for the establishment of international radiation protection standards. The preceding organization to RERF was the Atomic Bomb Casualty Commission which was established in 1948 by the U.S National Academy of Sciences. It was established to determine how over long-term exposure to radiation affected the health of A-bomb survivors. An extensive interview survey was conducted in the 1950s based on which records were compiled for each A-bomb survivor. These records concerned location and structure of the building the survivor may have been at the time of the bombing. Based on these records radiation doses were calculated for most A-bomb survivors. RERF was established on April 1 1975 as a nonprofit foundation under the jurisdiction of the Japan Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Ministry of Health and Welfare. On April 1 2012 RERF transitioned to a public interest incorporated foundation upon authorization by Japan's Prime Minister. National Academy Press hardcover
