Summary

CBA mice have been irradiated from early maturity to death with low daily doses of fast neutrons or gamma-radiation delivered nearly continuously. For life-shortening the rbe of the fast neutrons was about 10 for mice of either sex; there was no significant dependence on size of daily dose within the range investigated.
