An approach to validating calculations of electromagnetic fields formed upon the interaction between a narrowly directed pulse of ionizing radiation and a medium, done on the basis of the model of linear current, is proposed. The forms of the magnetic components of the electromagnetic field are derived by summing the fields of free electrons created as a result of passage of 10-MeV gamma quanta through the air at a pressure of 10 atm.
