Abstract
), is investigated, as are the effects of theentrainment of soil in the explosive fireball. Experiments have involved detonating 15 g charges ofC-4 in a sealed 5 L detonation vessel under atmospheres of nitrogen or air, and in contact with quartzsand, black earth, or clay. It has been found that particle interactions serve to increase the overall sizeof particles because the particles fuse together, deposit onto one another, and form agglomerates. Asbigger particles are heavier and less able to stay suspended in the air, particle interactions with soilserve to decrease the quantity of the powdered tracer that remains aerosol sized. Essentially, particleinteractions in the fireball reduce the number of particles that are small enough to stay suspended inthe air.
