Methods of high time-resolution spectroscopy were used to determine two stages of explosive luminescence in solid energetic materials: the pre-explosive stage and the stage of processes occurring in explosion products. It was experimentally established that in silver azides the heating of a sample at the end of the pre-explosive stage does not exceed ~ 300 K; while at the second stage the temperature of the explosion products reaches ~ 3000 K. As it follows from the data obtained the major portion (~ 90%) of the energy released during the explosion in AgN 3 is associated with the processes occurring in the explosion products.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
