AN ANALYTICALLY SOLVABLE MODEL FOR THE ELEC TROMAGNETIC FIELDS PRODUCED BY NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS,

Abstract

A theoretical expanding electromagnetic field structure analogous to that produced by a nuclear explosion is presented. The model displays time-and-space varying conductivity and current, but can be solved analytically. There are certain long-time nonphysical effects, but the fields are plausible for an interesting portion of the time scale. (Author)
