The Frequency Versus Length Response for a Deformed SLIFER Cable.

Abstract

On a recent underground explosive test, an anomalous response was recorded by the SLIFER system. Several experiments were performed in an attempt to explain this behavior by introducing short, deformed sections of cable into the transmission line. The frequency versus length response of the SLIFER was then characterized for these several possible configurations. A credible explanation of the anomalies did not result from this work. (Author)
