Abstract

Two infrared radiometers were constructed for use in shock wave and detonation research. Fast detectors were combined with wide-band amplifiers to achieve an overall response of about 5 ns, which was confirmed by experiments on planar shocked copper plates. Detonation experiments show the merits of a new optical technique for probing detonation wave structure and for reactive and nonreactive shock wave research.
