Abstract
A new method of remote investigation of detonation and shock-wave processes with the use of synchrotron radiation is proposed. The facility used for t he first experiments with measurement of density and small-angle x-ray scat tering in detonation of condensed explosives is described. The high time an d spatial resolution of the techniques proposed allows one to determine the character and mechanism of destruction of the condensed phase and the grow th dynamics of new structures, including crystalline ones, in detonation fl ows. The capabilities of the new technique are described.
