The EMP Museum ( formerly known as Experience Music Project and Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame or EMP | SFM ) is a museum dedicated to the history and exploration of popular music, science fiction and pop culture located in Seattle, Washington.

EMP struggled financially in its early years ; as a result, Allen established the Science Fiction Museum and Hall of Fame ( SFM ), which opened in 2004 in the south wing of the EMP building.

The EMP Museum showcases rare artifacts from popular music history and allows the visitor to experience music through interactive exhibitions like Sound Lab and On Stage.

The EMP Museum is currently hosting a special exhibition that opened on October 23, 2010 on Battlestar Galactica, with original props and cast members as guest speakers.

On June 4, 2011, the EMP Museum opened Avatar: The Exhibition, housed in the former SFM wing of the building.

The most common type of glycolysis is the Embden-Meyerhof pathway ( EMP pathway ), which was first discovered by Gustav Embden, Otto Meyerhof.

Corto's testimony was finessed to protect the military officers who had covered up knowledge of the EMP weapons, and Corto himself disappeared into the criminal underworld after undergoing extensive physical and mental rehabilitation.

" During British nuclear testing in 1952 – 1953 there were instrumentation failures that were attributed to " radioflash ", which was then the British term for EMP.

The EMP damage of the Starfish Prime test was quickly repaired because of the ruggedness ( compared to today ) of the electrical and electronic infrastructure of Hawaii in 1962.

The relatively small magnitude of the Starfish Prime EMP in Hawaii ( about 5600 volts / metre ) and the relatively small amount of damage done ( for example, only 1 to 3 percent of streetlights extinguished ) led some scientists to believe, in the early days of EMP research, that the problem might not be as significant as was later realized.

Although these weapons were much smaller ( 300 kiloton or 1. 3 PJ ) than the Starfish Prime test, since those tests were done over a populated large land mass ( and also at a location where the Earth's magnetic field was greater ), the damage caused by the resulting EMP was reportedly much greater than in the Starfish Prime nuclear test.

The concept of the explosively pumped flux compression generator for generating a non-nuclear electromagnetic pulse was conceived as early as 1951 by Andrei Sakharov in the Soviet Union, but nations have usually kept their most recent work on non-nuclear EMP highly classified until the technology was old enough for similar ideas to be conceived by physicists in other nations.

Vacuum tube equipment was damaged in 1962 nuclear EMP testing.

The earlier PRC-25, nearly identical except for a vacuum tube final amplification stage, had been tested in EMP simulators but was not certified to remain fully functional.

Since the E1 component of nuclear EMP depends on the prompt gamma ray output, which was only 0. 1 % of yield in Starfish Prime but can be 0. 5 % of yield in pure fission weapons of low yield, a 10 kiloton bomb can easily be 5 x 8 % = 40 % as powerful as the 1. 44 megaton Starfish Prime at producing EMP.

EMP was also the site of the demo and concert program for the first international conference on New Interfaces for Musical Expression ( NIME-01 ) and the Pop Conference, an annual gathering of academics, critics, musicians and music buffs.

However, the AI munitions chips had the flaw that they can't stand an EMP, which caused the government to shut down the AI munitions chips experiment, which upsets the creator since his AI chips was his finest work.

The word " spam " was usually taken to mean " excessive multiple posting ( EMP )", and other neologisms were coined for other abuses – such as " velveeta " ( from the processed cheese product of that name ) for " excessive cross-posting ".

She sacrificed herself in order to stop a futuristic war machine by triggering an EMP bomb located in her body, which was originally intended to wipe the brains of the League.

Bond continues on with finding EMP device that was stolen and destroying ten computers in distribution center from which a car transporter carrying the smuggling cars.

This satellite was known to have a failed electromagnetic pulse ( EMP ) sensor, and it had developed a fault ( in July 1972 ) in its recording memory, but that fault had cleared itself by March 1978.

Atlas Aircraft was also involved in non-conventional weapons systems research and development in 1987 / 88, to produce an EMP Cannon for Armscor, which was to be used primarily in shooting down Russian Migs in the Angolan Conflict.

Commander Hawk reluctantly complied, hitting them with an EMP device, but Wheeljack was able to maintain consciousness long enough to warn the Joes that a nuclear explosion would have a cataclysmic reaction with the Energon Cobra sought to synthesize.

Starfish Prime caused an electromagnetic pulse ( EMP ) which was far larger than expected, so much larger that it drove much of the instrumentation off scale, causing great difficulty in getting accurate measurements.

); a homemade shelter-ventilating pump ( a KAP ); large containers for water ; a plastic bottle of sodium hypochlorite bleach ; one or two KFMs and the knowledge to operate them ; at least a 2-week supply of compact, nonperishable food ; an efficient portable stove ; wooden matches in a waterproof container ; essential containers and utensils for storing, transporting, and cooking food ; a hose-vented 5-gallon can, with heavy plastic bags for liners, for use as a toilet ; tampons ; insect screen and fly bait ; any special medications needed by family members ; Pure potassium iodide, a 2-oz bottle, and a medicine-dropper ; A first-aid kit and a tube of antibiotic ointment ; long-burning candles ( with small wicks ) sufficient for at least 14 nights ; an oil lamp ; a flashlight and extra batteries ; and a transistor radio with extra batteries and a metal box to protect it from EMP.

As the Operation team attacked a Soviet computer center, EMP weapons shut down their computers and flight systems, and Corto and his men were targeted by Soviet laser defenses.

McCoy drives away in a truck to retrieve his wife and child in Sedalia, but it is disabled by the EMP blast.

The larger scientific community became aware of the significance of the EMP problem after a series of three articles were published about nuclear electromagnetic pulse in 1981 by William J.

The three components of nuclear EMP, as defined by the IEC, are called E1, E2 and E3.

The mechanism for a 400 km high altitude burst EMP: gamma rays hit the atmosphere between 20 – 40 km altitude, ejecting electrons which are then deflected sideways by the Earth's magnetic field.

The E2 component of the pulse has many similarities to the electromagnetic pulses produced by lightning, although the electromagnetic pulse induced by a nearby lightning strike may be considerably larger than the E2 component of a nuclear EMP.

Although vacuum tubes are far more resistant to EMP than solid state devices, other components in vacuum tube circuitry can be damaged by EMP.

This is simply because electrons ( ejected from the air by gamma rays ) are stopped quickly in normal air for bursts below roughly 10 km ( about 6 miles ), so they do not get a chance to be significantly deflected by the Earth's magnetic field ( the deflection causes the powerful EMP seen in high altitude bursts ), thus the limited use of smaller burst altitudes for widespread EMP.

The pre-ionisation in some situations can literally short out part of the final EMP, by allowing a conduction current to immediately oppose the Compton current of electrons.

Thermonuclear weapons are also less efficient at producing EMP because the first stage can pre-ionize the air which becomes conductive and hence rapidly shorts out the electron Compton currents generated by the final, larger yield thermonuclear stage.

The same reference book also states that, "... over most of the area affected by the EMP the electric field strength on the ground would exceed 0. 5E < sub > max </ sub >.

In other words, the electric field strength in the entire area that is affected by the EMP will be fairly uniform for weapons with a large gamma ray output ; but for much smaller weapons, the electric field may fall off at a comparatively faster rate at large distances from the detonation point.

It is the peak electric field of the EMP that determines the peak voltage induced in equipment and other electrical conductors on the ground, and most of the damage is determined by induced voltages.

It is also relatively unaffected by EMP and radiation.
