THE DIFFUSION OF MAGNETIC FIELDS IN MOVING CONDUCTORS

Abstract

A source of high energy electrical pulses is needed in such fields as thermonuclear research and radar. An efficient method of producing these pulses is to directly convert mechanical energy into an electrical form. This process of electromechanical energy conversion requires strong interaction between a magnetic field and moving conductors. A model of an electromechanical pulser is studied with emphasis upon the process of diffusion of fields into the physical conductor. (Author)
