AN EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION OF THE EFFECTS OF RADIATION ON THE PROPAGATION OF ELECTROMAGNETIC SIGNALS IN AIR

Abstract

The present report covers work performed during the period 1 January to 31 March 1963. It begins with a description of modifications made to the experimental equipment to permit the measurement of time-dependent ionization phenomena. The results of transient measurements in oxygen and N sub 2 - O sub 2 mixtures using these techniques is then presented. A detailed calculation of the role of diffusion in transient ionization phenomena has been started and is discussed in the report. The report closes with a description of the proposed work for the next quarter.
