INTRODUCTION

This bibliography lists the publications of the NBS Electro

magnetics Division between June 30, 1972 and June 30, 1973.

Documents accepted for publication but not yet published ar

also listed. All the documents identified in the 1972

bibliography (June 30, 1971 to June 30, 1972) as "to

be published" have now been published and are included

in this report. *

Although NBS Reports, Memoranda for the Record and other

informal documents are included, it must be understood

that these are not formal publications and are considered

"unpublished" , and therefore not generally available

for distribution.

The documents in this bibliography can be categorized

as follows:
