Nuclear Power for the Arctic
Brief history of Army's nuclear power and Arctic research and development programs; installation of PM-2A nuclear power plant in Camp Century, Greenland; engineering problems and solutions related to installation and operation of plant; plant being air-transportable has only minimum of shielding; shielding was to be provided by thick snow walls; however, high level gammafield caused snow to heat up beneath reactor; temperature of 5 F insured by extra lead brick shielding.
