Reflection and Accident
Another reflection off of a flat surface with a little surprise. If you look closely under the main blast there is another small explosion/shock wave starting.
When I put the explosive on the top support it goes into a little brass cup. Sometimes some spills off the cup and lands on the surface below. This time a small chunk of the Ag2C was detonated by the explosion of the larger charge.
If I could control this I could make some nice patterns. I've read papers were researchers do exactly this by setting off small charges simultaneously by using a beam split YAG laser. the heat/shock from the laser sets off two small explosions at the almost exactly the same time.
Cheers.
