Mader C.L., Johnson J.N., Crane S.L. (Eds.) Los Alamos: Explosives Performance Data

University of California Press, 1982. — 811 p.This volume I)f the Los Alamos Series on Dynamic Material Properties is designed to
provide a source of reliable performance data on some of the high explosives that have
been studied at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. It is a companion volume to the
LASL Explosiw Proper!js Data volume edited by Terry R. Gibbs and Alphonse Popolato
and published by the University of California Press in 1980. That volume covered only
pure explosives and explosive formulations that were well characterized. In this volume.
explosives performance. as measured by plate acceleration data, aquarium data, and
detonation velocity data, is presented for many explosives and geometries that interest
explosives scientists more than they interest explosives engineers. It also includes data for
conventional explosives that were not presented in the Gibbs and Popolato volume.Plate acceleration data
