Abstract: This report covers the activities of the Joint Task Force 132 in

Operation Ivy, in 1952 at Eniwetok Atoll.

Shots Mike and King were

detonated in conjunction with eleven experimental programs.

This report

and experimental programs, giving as many

describes the device, weapon,

preliminary conclusions as can be drawn from early analysis of the
data.

Abstract: The effects of radiation on the passage of an electromagnetic
wave along a cable are too complicated to predict accurately from

theory alone. Also, near the bomb, the intensity during the shot is so

high that the results of laboratory measurements must be extrapolated
by too many orders of magnitude to be applied with much confidence to
the test conditions. Therefore, a number of cables were installed near

the bomb for the sole purpose of study the radiation effects, both to

help correct the data obtained in the present tests and to help predict
shielding requirements in future tests. The two types of effects looked
for were (1) a simple attenuation of a voltage across the line due to
the shunt conductance set up when Compton-recoil electrons from the
gamma rays ionize the gas between the inner and outer conductors; and
(2)

an induced signal

due to the Compton electrons being knocked out of

the inner and outer conductors in unequal amounts. On the basis of the
results, a discussion is given of the adequacy of the coral shielding
actually used to protect the horizontal cable runs.
