RADIATION CHARACTERISTICS OF THE XM-13 AND THE 20 MILLIMETER HISPANO SUIZA TRACER ROUNDS

Abstract

The XM-13 tracer and 20 millimeter Hispano Suiza tracer were tested under static laboratory conditions for their radiant output characteristics in the range of .4 to 1.1 microns. The following information was obtained for both items: (a.) The spectral energy distribution; (b.) Time intensity curve; and (c.) Average brightness distribution.
