In addition to other effects, a nuclear weapon detonated in or above the earth's atmosphere can create an electromagnetic pulse (EMP), a high-density electrical field.

除了其他影响，在地球大气层中或之上引爆的核武器会产生一种电磁脉冲(EMP)，这是一种高强度的电场。

They also lead to generation of an intense electromagnetic pulse (EMP) which can significantly degrade performance of or destroy sophisticated electronic equipment.

同时会产生密集电磁辐射(EMP)，摧毁复杂电子设备或给其性能带来严重影响。

Electromagnetic pulse (EMP) generated by electrostatic discharges (ESD) can severely interfere with the normal operation of electronic systems and even damage them.

静电放电(esd)产生的电磁脉冲(EMP)会对电子系统的正常工作造成严重的干扰，甚至造成系统的损伤。

Unfortunately, the lack of U.S. nuclear testing since 1992 has also contributed to uncertainty about the adequacy of steps to protect conventional military gear from the effects of high-energy, electromagnetic pulse (EMP) attacks.

Scientists are gathered this week to discuss a relatively underappreciated threat to our well-being, the impact a huge solar flare (also known as a solar mass ejection (SME) or solar electromagnetic pulse (EMP)) directed at Earth could wreak upon our modern technology.

FORBES: Huge Solar Flares Could Spell Catastrophe for Earth

Not only would everything be devastated in the immediate vicinity of the blast but an EMP (electromagnetic pulse) could wipe out almost anything that uses electricity (including cars and battery-powered phones, radios, and flashlights) throughout a much wider area.
