SUMMARY

In the field of warfare, it is usually pretty obvious, when someone dies, they have been intentionally killed. Also, an examination of the body can reveal how and even by whom they were killed. The present invention has the advantage of killing a target without leaving any trace of the cause of death. In most cases, the cause of death will be determined to be a heart attack or some other common cause of death. The current invention leaves no trace of the intent of killing the target, who did it, or how. It is the sniper assassin's perfect weapon. It may prove to have longer range than even the most powerful sniper rifles. Physics and technology involved is familiar to one skilled in the art.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

First Embodiment

FIG. 1

There is an electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12). There is an electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14). There is the target's brain tissue (10).

Operation of First Embodiment

FIG. 1

The electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12) immerses the target's brain tissue (10) in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between the target's brain tissue's ground state and the target's brain tissue's semi-excited state (16). The electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14) immerses the target's brain tissue in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between the target's brain tissue's semi-excited state and the target's brain tissue's excited state (18). The target's brain tissue ceases to function.

Second Embodiment

FIG. 2

There is an electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12). There is an electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14). There is the target's brain tissue (10).

Operation of Second Embodiment

FIG. 2

The electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12) immerses the target's brain tissue (10) in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between a target's brain tissue's ground state and the target's brain tissue's excited state (20). The electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14) immerses the target's brain tissue in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between the target's brain tissue's semi-excited state and the target's brain tissue's excited state (18). The target's brain tissue ceases to function.

Third Embodiment

FIG. 3

There is an electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12). There is an electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14). There is the target's brain tissue (10).

Operation of Third Embodiment

FIG. 3

The electromagnetic probe beam emitter (12) immerses the target's brain tissue (10) in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between the target's brain tissue's ground state and target's brain tissue's excited state (20). The electromagnetic coupling beam emitter (14) immerses the target's brain tissue in electromagnetic radiation tuned near resonance between the target's brain tissue's ground state and the target's brain tissue's semi-excited state (16). The target's brain tissue ceases to function.

Conclusion, Ramifications, and Scope

Three different ways of covertly terminating a target without any of the normal problematic ramifications of termination have been presented. This is a revolution in warfare, especially for a covert sniper. Compared with other electromagnetic and conventional weapons, the present invention does not damage or leave any trace in the body of the target. This is because the electromagnetic energy used by the present invention is non-ionizing radiation and uses wavelengths much larger than the body of any target. The information in these documents is not meant to, in any way, limit the scope of the Claims.
