Abstract
Spectroscopic-kinetic investigations of the luminescence accompanying the explosive decomposition of silver azide are performed. A new pheno menon is observed: predetonation luminescence. A comparison of the pre detonation luminescence spectrum with the band structure is in agreeme nt with a model in which the exothermic reaction 2N(3)(0)--> N-6 provi des the energy for the explosion.
