Spherical detonation waves can also be produced by condensed expls (solid ot liquid), especially if the charges are spherical in shape and they are initiated in the center. The above discussion of Baum et al applies to both gaseous and condensed expls. Addnl information on spherical detonation of solid explosives can be obtd from the works of Landau 8c Stanyukovich (Ref 2), Jones Miller (Ref 3), Wecken Sc Muecke (Ref 4a), Lutzky (Ref 26), Rudlin (Ref 26a) and Green James (Ref 27)...
