Electromagnetic Emission and Plasma in Ecology

By V.P. Grigor'ev and E.T. Protasevich

The authors tried to solve the problem of environmental protection and presents the reader with prospects of the application of electromagnetic radiation and plasma for solving a number of ecological problems. Special attention is given to the development of radiolocation methods of identification of radioactive contamination of the atmosphere. The second problem is the controlled precipitation of atmospheric contamination. The authors also examine the development of physical methods influencing weather in order to eliminate shortage of water in dry regions. 1. Methods of detection of radioactive emission into the atmosphere, based on ionisation of the atmosphere at the surface of the earth 2. Passive methods of detection of radioactive emission into the atmosphere based on recording the radiation of atomic hydrogen and OH 3. Prospects of methods of precipitation of atmospheric contamination 4. Sources of powerful electromagnetic radiation (special features of sources of electromagnetic radiation for radiolocation detection of small objects; masers at cyclotron resonance; generation of electromagnetic oscillations in systems with a virtual cathode; free electron lasers, powerful laser radiation sources and methods of transfer of laser radiation in the atmosphere)
