    The answer is simple Physics

    "The term electromagnetic pulse (EMP) has the following meanings:

    1. electromagnetic radiation from an explosion (especially a nuclear explosion) or an intensely fluctuating magnetic field caused by Compton-recoil electrons and photoelectrons from photons scattered in the materials of the electronic or explosive device or in a surrounding medium. The resulting electric and magnetic fields may couple with electrical/electronic systems to produce damaging current and voltage surges.

    2. A broadband, high-intensity, short-duration burst of electromagnetic energy.
    In the case of a nuclear detonation or an asteroid impact, the electromagnetic pulse consists of a continuous frequency spectrum. Most of the energy is distributed throughout the lower frequencies between 3 Hz and 30 kHz.[1]"


    So an electromagnetic pulse is in a sense a strong burst of radiation.
