Description/Abstract:
If a defense installation is to survive a nearby nuclear detonation, one of the effects from which it must be protected is NEMR: the pulse of electromagnetic radiation produced by the nuclear detonation. This study examines the problem of evaluating the ability of physical systems to resist NEMR.
