  • Abstract
    The electric fields and current densities induced by a magnetic field have been calculated using the concept of mutual inductance. The spatial derivative of the electrical field generated by a coil located below and parallel to a semi-infinite conducting medium has been evaluated along lines parallel to the coil. The results have been verified experimentally and are important for the understanding of the mechanisms of peripheral axonal excitation
