Gamma radiation effects on magnet wire

With the advent of the aerospace age and with more and more nuclear power plants being built, design engineers have become increasingly concerned with radiation effects on electromagnetic equipment. Not only are they confronted with cosmic radiation, but also with radiation due to the close proximity of nuclear devices. The engineer designing components for spacecraft and electrical equipment for the atomic age is concerned with: A. What environment and what type of radiation will be encountered? B. How will radiation affect the equipment? C. To what degree will the equipment be affected?
