“…Using the inverse distance dependence for the radiated E-field, we have extrapolated these to 4 x 10" 8 V/m at 10 km. Curtis [7] reported 5 x 1(H V/m from 10 g of RDX at a distance of 6.1 m in the frequency range up to 350 Hz. This extrapolates to 3 xlO- 7 V/m at 10 km.…”

“…Emphasis was on effects close to the detonation region, and information was provided about the heat capacity of the detonation products and effects of temperature in the explosive region on the concentration of ionized particles. Reference [3] was a literature survey of previously detected RF energy associated with battlefield munitions [4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

An order of magnitude model is presented to estimate radiation from detonation of conventional explosives in an attempt to predict frequency bands and signal levels detected by other investigators. An earlier model describing the radiation generated by explosions has been refined to include the contribution of the heat capacity of the detonation products and the temperature dependence of the concentration of ionized particles. Relationships are established between explosions of uncased Composition B, the radiation frequency bands, and the E-and B-field amplitudes as a function of detection distance. The model considers the radiation from particles ionized by passage of the shock wave.

A series of medium‐size explosions are monitored by a variety of ground sensors. A preliminary study of one typical explosion at 250 meters above the ocean surface has revealed many interesting results; from the acoustical signal the effects of the atmosphere on infrasonic waves generated as a pulse have been identified both as a function of frequency and as a function of distance. VLF and ELF electromagnetic signals have been observed by stations more than 100 kilometers from the explosion center. The signals are described fully, and the experimental objectives are summarized.
