DEVELOPMENT OF EQUIPMENT TO CONDUCT AREA SURVEY MEASUREMENTS OF THE ELECTROMAGNETIC PULSES FROM NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS.
Abstract
Two devices were designed to be used for measuring the peak electric or magnetic field generated by an atmospheric nuclear explosion. These devices are low cost, rugged, battery operated, and easily deployable instruments. One of the instruments makes measurements in discrete steps. As presently designed, it covers a dynamic range of 48 db in six db steps. The second device, which uses a cathode ray tube and photographic film to provide a continuous measurement scale, has a dynamic range of 54 db.
