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 Jetonations during Operation REDWIKC.
Thie data is to be used in oonrection with « continuing study relating
the vavefore parameters to the height and yield of the detonation.

TESTRIBEATATION
Two identical stations are used to record data, one et Enivetok and
one at Evejalein.
‘

The instrumentation consists of a wide-band receiver vith separate
outpute connected to each of the three oscilloscopes.

Mounted on each

oscilloscope is a Polaroid Land Camera for recording the transient display.
