Commission E: Working groups

· E.1. Terrestrial and Planetary Electromagnetic Noise Environment

Co-Chairs: M.Hayakawa (Japan), A.P. Nickolaenko (Ukraine), and C. Price (Israel). For more information on E.1 working group objectives click here

· E.2. Intentional Electromagnetic Interference

Co-Chairs: M. Bäckström (Sweden), and W. Radasky (U.S.A)

· E.3. High Power Electromagnetics

Co-Chairs: C.E. Baum (U.S.A), and R.L. Gardner (U.S.A)

The subject of this working group is the physics and engineering

associated with electromagnetic sources for which nonlinear effects

associated with high-field regions must be avoided or included in the

analysis and design. This includes (but is not limited to) EMP

simulators, high-power narrowband and mesoband sources and antennas, and hyperband (impulse) sources and antennas. It also includes the environment near lightning channels and in nuclear EMP source regions. In some cases it includes the high–field regions on, or in targets.

This committee actively encourages participation in scientific

symposia related to this subject, including URSI and other societies

(such as AMEREM/EUROEM, etc.)
