Abstract
Since the 1960s significant effort has gone into developing requisite technology for the nuclear electromagnetic pulse (EMP). In the late 1970s several important summary documents were published. The author updates this information to the present. It is noted that EMP has affected a set of related areas which can be collectively referred to as high-power electromagnetics (HPE). This includes direct-strike lightning, high-power microwaves (HPM), and some aspects of transient radar
