Abstract

The initial fields of disturbance due to explosions of spherical charges of PETN in air and water are calculated, using the analysis developed in part I. The results in air compare favourably with earlier calculations (Berry & Holt 1954). In water it is found that the second blast wave immediately moves towards the centre of the explosion, with very small initial strength.
