Project 6.5 - Analysis of Electromagnetic Pulse Produced by Nuclear
Explosions ~ 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,
_NSTRUMENTATION
Two identical stations are used to record data, one at Eniwetok
q
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.
