Explosion-to-detonation transition(XDT)

Explosion-to-detonation transition (XDT) - a delayed transition of a unstable violent reaction into detonation.

The explosion-to-detonation transition refers to the process by which an initially subsonic or deflagration-type reaction transforms into a supersonic detonation. In simpler terms, it describes the transition from a slower, less intense burning or reaction to a much faster and more violent detonation.

Researchers and engineers study the explosion-to-detonation transition to enhance the performance of explosives, improve safety measures, and optimize the design of explosive devices.
