SUMMIARY

The purpose of this index is to provide a summary of nuclear weap.oneffects simulators within the United States. This is an index and not a

'..-detailed source document. As such, the emphasis has been to provide thesimulator name. type, location and point of contact followed by a shortdescription. The intent is to provide very brief information to allow thereader to determine if there is sufficient interest to contact the Pointof contact for more detailee information. This index can also be used forcursory familiarization on the basic characteristics of simulators forsupervisory personnel or others new to the simulator community. Thereferences listed at the conclusion of this index are also valuabledocuments for this purpose.

Effort has been made to make the listing As comprehensive as possible.The authors would appreciate any information on simulators which have notbeen included, in addition to, any corrections or updates to simulatorcapabilities. This information should be provided to:

CommianderField Command. DNAATTnJ: FCTOKirtland AFS, NM 87115

The information in this document has been obtained from the reference listand through information provided from the point of contacts listed foreach simulator. Information has been updated by the point of contact or,where current, summarized from the reference documemts. The authors wishto think all thcse who provided informAtion for this index.

POINT OF CONTACT: Physics .L-nfornational Company PATTN: Mr. Fred M. Sauer, Chief Scientist2700 Merced StreetSan Leandro, CA 94577Phone: (415) 577-7159

DESCRIPTION:

The Multiburst Test Facility uses a reinforced concrete pad to test 8-lbhigh-explosive spheres in air at various heights of burst. One to sixcharges can be fired simultaneously or nonsimultaneously in trianqular orhexagonal patterns. Numerous pressure gage ports within the pad allowairblast pressure measuremnts to be made at the pad surface. Two gage .lines extend beyond the pad, enabling measurement of the free-fieldairblast from single or multiple charge arrays. A
