Project summary

The project implies theoretical, computational, and experimental activities on the development and examination at land of an equipment to predict regions and dates of nature catastrophe occurrence using heavy-current deuterium ion injector, detectors on the base of multigrid probe and toroidal pulsed solenoid, time measuring unit (timer) allowing highly accurate determination of magnetic component of electromagnetic field B_н and induction of quasi-steady geomagnetic Earth’s field B_E when aboard electromagnetic interference exceeds measured physical values which are Earth’s cataclysm precursors. As a result of the project a laboratory system should be developed and tested in land conditions. This system is to be a prototype of operating highly sensitive magnetometer on the base of remote interrogation of the Earth’s magnetosphere by pulsed ion beams.
