Exploring the High-altitude Nuclear Detonation and Magnetic Storms
Abstract
The High-altitude Nuclear Detonation (HND) experiments were carried between 1958/62 by both the United
States of America (USA) and the former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR); the Starfish HND resulted
in many phenomena, it discharged great amount of beta particles and debris, releasing intense gamma radiation
which ionized atoms and molecules, resulting in Compton electrons and the production of Electromagnetic Pulse
(EMP); the experiment also produced intense magnetic field, measured worldwide, with magnitude inversely
proportional to square of the radial distance; the graph near the detonation center gave similar characteristics to the
Magnetic Storms (MS); these characteristics were analyzed, whereas in both phenomenon, an External Magnetic
Field-Moment (ExMFM) was produced; both the source and magnitude of the produced ExMFM were also analyzed
and a mechanisms suggested for EMP production; characteristics regulating both phenomena are disclosed and
elaborated from different perspectives; it is with hope that this will help in the process towards better understanding
to some aspects related to the ExMF production in which if managed will be an advancement of the long awaited
alternative renewable energy.

Wave propagation in strongly coupled classical plasmas in an external magnetic field
Genga, R. O (Univesity of NairobiDepartment of Physics, 1988-05)When a small perturbation is applied to the plasma dispersion, a small shift of frequency due to correlation occurs. This is justified even for strong coupling, since the effect is proportional tok 2 (k is the wave vector) ...
