The Basic Idea Of An E-bomb:
an electromagnetic pulse (EMP) weapon
intense electromagnetic field.
The Most Important Thing To Understand:
Electromagnetism

Generates Magnetic Fields

Induce Electric Current.

fluctuating electrical current in a circuit

magnetic field can induce an electrical current in another

conductor (radio receiver antenna).
 INTRODUCTION
A low intensity transmission only induces sufficient
electrical current to pass on a signal to a receiver.
When increase the intensity of the signal (the magnetic
field), it would induce a much larger electrical current.
The intense fluctuating magnetic field induce a massive
current in just about any other electrically conductive
object
ex: phone lines, power lines , metal pipes.
There are a number of possible ways of generating and
"delivering" such a magnetic field.
 THE NUCLEAR EMP THREAT
The United States was most concerned
with the possibility of a nuclear EMP
attack
This idea dates back to nuclear weapons
research from the 1950s.
In 1958, American tests of hydrogen
bomb surprising results. A test blast over
hundreds of miles away.
The blast even disrupted radio equipment
as far away as Australia.
 THE NUCLEAR EMP THREAT

electrical disturbance was due to the

Compton effect.
In the 1958 test, the photons from the
blast's intense gamma radiation.
 THE NUCLEAR EMP THREAT

This flood of electrons interacted with the

Earth's magnetic field to create a
fluctuating electric current,
During the cold war, U.S. feared the Soviet
Union would launch a nuclear missile
These days, U.S. intelligence is giving non-
nuclear EMP devices, such as e-bombs,
they could be used to create total
blackouts on a more local level.
NON-NUCLEAR EMP WEAPONS

The United States most likely has EMP weapons

Much of the United States' EMP research has
involved high power microwaves (HPMs).
They're probably more like super powerful
microwave ovens concentrated beam of
microwave energy.
One possibility is the HPM device would be
mounted to a cruise missile, disrupting ground
targets from above.
NON-NUCLEAR EMP WEAPONS

One possibility is the HPM device would be

mounted to a cruise missile, disrupting
ground targets from above
With inexpensive supplies and rudimentary
knowledge, a terrorist organization could
easily construct a dangerous e-bomb device.
flux compression generator bombs
(FCGs)
 DESIGN OF E-BOMB
Simple, potentially inexpensive design

Armature-metal cylinder. This cylinder is

filled with high explosive.
stator winding-coil of wire surrounds
armature
sturdy jacket surrounds the entire device.
 DESIGN OF E-BOMB

A switch connects the capacitors to the stator,

generates an intense magnetic field.
The explosion travels as a wave through the
middle of the armature cylinder.
the cylinder comes in contact with the stator
winding creates a short circuit.
This compresses the magnetic field, and
generating an intense electromagnetic burst.
 DESIGN OF E-BOMB

But it could do some serious damage.

this type of weapon would affect a relatively small
area.
 HOW E-BOMB WORKS
An e-bomb would destroy most electrical machines in its path
But in the grand scheme of things, that's nothing. If an outage hits an
entire city, and there aren't adequate emergency resources, people
may die from exposure, companies may suffer huge productivity losses
and millions of dollars of food may spoil. If a power outage hit on a
much larger scale, it could shut down the electronic networks that keep
governments and militaries running. We are utterly dependent on
power, and when it's gone, things get very bad, very fast.
 APPLICATIONS OF E-BOMB

Neutralize most advanced electronics of the

enemy military forces.
Most of underground bunkers are hard to
reach with conventional bombs and missiles.
A nuclear blast could effectively demolish
many of the bunkers, but this would take a
devastating toll on surrounding areas.
 APPLICATIONS OF E-BOMB

An electromagnetic pulse could pass through

the ground -- even electric doors. The bunker
would be completely uninhabitable.
Atom bomb greatly disturbs the natural Flora
and Fauna, but the usage of e-bomb induces
technical destruction
 E-BOMB EFFECTS

EMP technology is potentially non-lethal,

but is still highly destructive.
An E-bomb attack would leave buildings
standing and spare lives, but it could destroy
a sizeable military.
Low-level electromagnetic pulses would
temporarily jam electronics systems.
More intense pulses corrupt important
computer data and very powerful bursts
would fry electric and electronic equipment.
 E-BOMB EFFECTS
•In modern warfare, the various levels of
attack could accomplish a number of
important combat missions without
racking up many casualties.
ex : e-bomb could effectively neutralize:
1.vehicle control systems
2.targeting systems
3.communications systems
4.navigation systems
5.long and short-range sensor
systems
 E-BOMB EFFECTS

the U.S. military has added sophisticated

electronics to the full range of its arsenal.
More rudimentary vacuum tube
technology would actually stand a better
chance of surviving an e-bomb attack.
A widespread EMP attack in any country
would compromise a military's ability to
organize itself.
 E-BOMB EFFECTS

Effectively, an EMP attack could

reduce any military unit into a guerilla-
type army.
they could easily kill people if they
were directed towards particular
targets.
An EMP weapon could also neutralize
vehicles, including aircraft, causing
catastrophic accidents.
In the end, the most far-reaching effect
 CONCLUSION

Thus intelligent usage of this E bomb

reduces the enemy potential
destructing their Technology and it
must be noted that this e bomb
technology might become a major
threat to existing electronics, if it falls
in wrong hands. This again proves that
electronics can also be destructive.
