ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION PRODUCED IN THE DETONATION OF INDUSTRIAL EXPLOSIVES

Abstract

The results of an investigation of the pulses of electromagnetic radiation arising from the detonation of the most characteristic industrial explosives. Indicate the following facts: (1) the emission of electromagnetic energy is connected essentially with the expansion of gaseous products of the detonation; (2) each explosive has a characteristic electromagnetic pulse, reproducible in parallel experiments; and (3) for different explosives these pulses differ markedly one from another.
