A calculational procedure for gamma-ray box IEMP

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6973344

An approximate procedure is presented for calculating the gamma-ray box IEMP short-circuit-current response of lands on PC boards. Calculated results are compared to experimental data obtained previously at Aurora on phenomenology PC boards with different land widths and board-land configurations. These comparisons illustrate the importance of adequately modeling in gamma-ray box IEMP calculations the amount of shielding between the gamma ray source and the test cassette. 23 refs., 13 figs.
