Detection and Disposal of Improvised Explosives

Short description

Contains lectures of an international NATO-Russian Advanced Research Workshop about Detection and Disposal of Improvised Explosives used by terrorists. The ARW was an event of a series of workshops before, dealing with detection of explosives by different analytical methods and different shape and compositions of the explosive charge.

Long description

This book collects lectures of an international NATO-Russian Advanced Research Workshop on Detection and Disposal of Improvised Explosives (IE) used by terrorists. The disposal of IE is especially dangerous, because they are often much more unstable and mechanically more sensitive than commercial or military explosives. This text covers detection of explosives by different analytical methods and the different shape and compositions of the explosive charge, and offers up-to-date advice on handling and disposal.
