REQUEST FOR DISCUSSION - SCI.PHYSICS.ELECTROMAGNETI

This is a formal request for discussion on the subject of creating the
unmoderated newsgroup sci.physics.electromagneti.  Discussion will take place
in the newsgroup news.groups.

Justification
-------------

Our understanding of electromagnetic fields and waves is advancing at a
rapid pace.  This is due in part to advances in computer hardware
and software that have made it possible to model complex electromagnetic
field problems.  It is also due to the proliferation of radio frequency 
devices and high speed digital circuits that are both sources and 
receivers of electromagnetic energy.  

Keeping up with all of the latest advances and discoveries in this area
is a challenge.  The purpose of this newsgroup will be to help scientists,
engineers, experimenters, and inventors to stay abreast of the latest
developments in this field.

Charter
-------

Sci.physics.electromagneti will be dedicated to the discussion of topics
pertaining to electromagnetics.  These include, but are not limited to: 

 electromagnetic wave theory        computational EM modeling
 microwave devices and circuits     antenna design
 electromagnentic interference      biological effects
 ELF and VLF fields                 EM measurements
 wave propagation                   shielding
 electrostatic discharge            new RF devices and technology

*  Due to popular demand, the name of this proposed newsgroup has  *
*  been shortened.  Most of the responses I received favored the   *
*  name below.  It is reasonably short, but not too cryptic.       *
