DELETED, (SEMINOLE)
Project 6.5 - Analysis of the Electromagnetic Pulse Produced by
a Nuclear Explosion - C. J. Ong
OBJECTIVE
The objective of Project 6.5 is to obtain waveforms of the
electromagnetic radiation for all the detonations during Operation
REDWING.
This data is to be used in connection with a continuing
study relating the waveform parameters to the height and yield of
the detonation.
INSTPUMENTATION
Two identical stations are used to record data, one at Eniwetok and one at Kwajalein.
The instrumentation consists of a wide-band receiver with
separate outputs connected to each of the three oscilloscopes,
Mounted on each oscilloscope is a Polaroid Land Camera for recording the transient display.
RESULTS
No data was obtained for SEMINOLE due to the shielding of
the device,
Triggers were obtained but the traces observed showed
no results,
The electromagnetic pulse from the device was attenuated
severely and the data if obtained would be useless as correlation
between yield and field strength.
