Cobalt 60 would be a better salting medium.

Maybe they are looking for something that wouldn’t persist as long?

The way the article is written it is not the half-life they are talking about, but a heightened extent of the fallout.
Never heard such.

I think I understand it now. It ends up with only a short 114 day half life after having a high Gamma Ray component, making it stronger or more through. So the area isn’t increased as much as the effective area of dangerous radioactive fallout.
Well, isn’t that special.
