Book Description
The purpose of this study is to investigate and, if possible, establish the feasibility of producing artificial geomagnetic micropulsations by using a large horizontal current loop on the ground. Most natural micropulsations appear to be produced by hydromagnetic (hm) waves propagating in the ionosphere and/or the magnetosphere, and the term 'artificial micropulsations' is used to mean artificially produced hm waves with propagation characteristics similar to those of the natural signals. The critical quantity in the generation process for the hm waves is to the amplitude of the magnetic field variation that can be produced in the ionospheric E-region by the ground-based loop. Currents are induced in the conducting earth beneath the loop whenever its current is varied, and these currents have a magnetic field opposing the magnetic field of the loop. If either the conductivity of the earth or the variation frequency is too high the field at E-region heights may be reduced to a level where negligible hm wave amplitudes are produced. The effect of these earth currents is calculated for an assumed single-layer earth and for a wide range of frequencies and earth conductivities. (Author).

Book Description
NSA is a comprehensive collection of international nuclear science and technology literature for the period 1948 through 1976, pre-dating the prestigious INIS database, which began in 1970. NSA existed as a printed product (Volumes 1-33) initially, created by DOE's predecessor, the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (AEC). NSA includes citations to scientific and technical reports from the AEC, the U.S. Energy Research and Development Administration and its contractors, plus other agencies and international organizations, universities, and industrial and research organizations. References to books, conference proceedings, papers, patents, dissertations, engineering drawings, and journal articles from worldwide sources are also included. Abstracts and full text are provided if available.

Geomagnetic Micropulsations
Author: J. A. Jacobs
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9783540049869
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
The subject of geomagnetic micropulsations has developed extremely rapidly and it is difficult to know when is an appropriate time to pause and assess the sum total of our knowledge-both observational and theoretical. There has in recent years been a tremendous increase in both the quantity and quality of data and also many theoretical ad vances in our understanding of the phenomenon. Undoubtedly there will be further progress in both areas but it seems worthwhile now to review both our knowledge and our ignorance. This book was essen tially completed by the end of April 1969 and tries to give a summary of the subject up to that time. The Earth is enclosed in the magnetosphere, a hollow carved out of the solar wind by the Earth's magnetic field. Above the ionosphere there is a very tenuous thermal plasma of partially ionized hydrogen in diffusive equilibrium with magnetic and gravitational forces, and ener getic protons and electrons that constitute the trapped Van Allen ra diation belts. Throughout this anisotropic and inhomogeneous plasma, natural and man-made electromagnetic energy propagates in a wide variety of modes and frequency bands. This book is concerned with that class of natural signals called geomagnetic micropulsations-short period (usually of the order of seconds or minutes) fluctuations of the Earth's magnetic field.
