A method for Reducing Data from Radiographs of Shaped-Charge Jets

Abstract

This report is a users' guide intended for those involved in reducing data from radiographs of shaped-charge jets. The procedure for setting-up and reading radiographs is listed step-by-step. A computer code listing and description of the calculations are included. jet particle velocities, break-up time, kinetic energies, lengths, diameters, length-to-diameter ratios, masses, momentums, and jet virtual origin are all included in the code.
