In the late 1950s, he was instrumental in the organization's analysis of milk samples from around the country for radiation, thus making widely available for the first time information about the fallout dangers of atmospheric nuclear tests.
In 1955, Masters published a novel, The Accident, detailing the last eight days of a nuclear physicist dying from radiation sickness after a criticality accident, based on the death of physicist Louis Slotin who died after such an accident in 1946.
