What is EMP?
The term electromagnetic pulse
(sometimes abbreviated EMP) has the
following meanings:
A burst of Electromagnetic radiation that
results from an explosion (especially a nuclear
explosion) or a suddenly fluctuating magnetic
field. The resulting electric and magnetic fields
may couple with electrical/electronic systems
to produce damaging current and voltage
surges.
A broadband, high-intensity, short-duration
burst of electromagnetic energy.
HEMP?
•
HEMP: Stands For High-Altitude
ElectroMagnetic Pulse.
This is the Military Terminology for what would
be used to disable all electronics within a
varying radius, certain areas on the planet are
more susceptible to an EMP attack because of
the Greater Strength in the Earth’s Magnetic
Field over that area.
If We were to be attacked by an EMP This is how
it would be described, but EMP isn’t as simple as
being used completely for weapons
Practical Uses
EMP can be analyzed through many solutions, it is
broadly applicable
EMP can be used in T.V sets causing a better
quality, more so then that of an HD, It can cause
sharper quality with use of minimal band
broadening.
Through the discovery of EMP led the magnetic
sciences, The MRI was first discovered through
this break through in technology, the Magnetic
sciences have, and continue to make ground
breaking inventions today and in the future.
NNEMP
NNEMP: Non Nuclear Magnetic Pulse
Not a very expansive field, because in order to
achieve the energy required a chemical explosion is
needed, The NNEMP are used in bombs, and
microwave weapons on cruisers and other
Battleships. NNEMP is also used in Radars, and
testing centers to see how well electronics survive
against an EMP attack. The NNEMP is uses in strategic
operations against enemy insurgents to knock out there
electronics. It is also less destructive
Rail Guns
Along side of the MRI the EMP led to the creation of the Rail
Gun, the rail gun does not fire explosive rounds, rather it fires
normal rounds at an explosive rate, Depending on the projectile
they can reach up to 7 times the speed of sound. When Rail Guns
are perfected they will revolutionize how weapons are maintained
and what they are capable of. They will make weapons safer, and
weapon jams virtually impossible to experience. They aren't only
being developed to be applicable to small arms, they are working
on making rail guns capable of delivering high speed missiles to
target. The downside in Rail gun weaponry is finding a way to
dampen the heat produced in the process of firing a projectile at
such strength and velocity
