THE KOMPANEETS MODEL FOR RADIO EMISSION FROM A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION

THE KOMPANEETS MODEL FOR RADIO EMISSION FROM A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION

The electromagnetic signal from a nuclear explosion is computed using the same method as presented by Kompaneets (A. S. Kompaneets, JETP, 35, 1538 (1958)). It is shown that some of Kompaneets' approximations are incorrect and lead to the wrong shape for the radiated signal. His work neglects th...

Zusammenfassung:The electromagnetic signal from a nuclear explosion is computed using the same method as presented by Kompaneets (A. S. Kompaneets, JETP, 35, 1538 (1958)). It is shown that some of Kompaneets' approximations are incorrect and lead to the wrong shape for the radiated signal. His work neglects the important first half-cycle of the signal and hence predicts an initial deflection in the wrong direction. A more correct solution is presented. (Author)
