Potential Variations Arising Out of a Periodic Lattice of Isolated Logarithmic Singularities

This correspondence alludes to two recent publications [2], [3] which have developed two entirely distinct formulations for tapping spurious Compton electron emanating from the walls of system-generated EMP simulators. While both formulations recognize the predominant role played by the potential field, no attempt was made in either paper to estimate the relative error involved in pursuing the efficient analysis of the GJT paper [2]. This article does such an analysis based on the variations in the potential field as the parameters of the periodic lattice are changed. This would help the designer to choose between the two techniques¿the efficient one with parametric limitations or the more involved one with a large measure of parametric freedom.
