Ground-based optical detection of deep space nuclear detonations

Simple approximate expressions are developed to describe the ring of fluorescent light from X rays impinging on the atmosphere. The relative ranging capability of zenith-oriented detectors is then estimated as a function of effective collecting area, field of view, electronic bandwidth, burst angle,...
