Abstract:
The paper reports results obtained in numerical simulation of the formation of a magnetic dipole moment by displacement of the geomagnetic field in an underground camouflet. The cases of chemical and nuclear explosions equivalent to an explosion of 1 kiloton of TNT are considered. From the calculation results it is concluded that electromagnetic measurement results can be used for monitoring of nuclear test.
