Features of the Chemical Transformation of Explosives and Other Condensed Media in Shock-Wave Processes

This paper is dedicated to the anniversary of Academician Nikolai Nikolayevich Semyonov at the Russian Academy of Sciences, a Nobel Prize winner. Here, we familiarize scientists working in the field of the physics of explosion and shock waves with the analysis of data obtained in studies that have not been sufficiently studied. The analysis leads to a deeper understanding of the mechanism of chemical transformation of explosives and other condensed media in shock-wave processes.
