Abstract
The results from studying the transient processes induced by a shock in porous TATB, obtained using an original and tested method based on employing the soft X-ray component of synchrotron radiation, are presented. The method enables us to determine the parameters of a shock-wave striker, the distribution of velocity and density behind the front of the shock and detonation wave, and the characteristics of flow after a shock wave is reflected from a rigid wall, all in one experiment. Trials with charges 1.8 and 1.9 g/cm3 in density show that modes such as the absence of detonation and initiation in direct and reflected shock waves, are possible depending on the loading conditions.
