NUCLEAR PULSE EFFECTS IN CABLES

Abstract

An equivalent circuit for a piece of cable is developed and the differential equations of this circuit are solved under the conditions of a transient burst of nuclear radiation and under various ranges of cable bias voltage. Graphs of representative cases are presented and compared to experimental results. A method of solving for the transient change in cable parameters is given and sample calculations are shown.
