A point explosion in an arbitrary atmosphere

It is shown that the method developed by Laumbach & Probstein (1969) for an exponential atmosphere can be extended to the case of an arbitrary atmospheric density distribution. Results are given for various burst-point altitudes in a model atmosphere and compared with those corresponding to an e...

Zusammenfassung:It is shown that the method developed by Laumbach & Probstein (1969) for an exponential atmosphere can be extended to the case of an arbitrary atmospheric density distribution. Results are given for various burst-point altitudes in a model atmosphere and compared with those corresponding to an exponential atmosphere.
