K. L. Kosanke and B. J. Kosanke Abstract: Lightning Thermo Tube (LTT) is a recently introduced type of shock tube with characteristics that make it highly suitable for use with common pyrotechnics. LTT is reliably initiated by reasonably energetic electric matches and reliably ignites most pyrotechnic compositions. LTT is physically strong, easily spliced and branched, …

The Search For The Glitter Phenomenon
John Wraige Abstract: This report presents the results of experiments carried out spasmodically over 14 years to investigate the glitter phenomenon. Various glitter compositions are disclosed. Some of these show that the use of sulphur in either elemental or combined form is unnecessary. Others show that similar considerations apply to antimony or any other heavy …

Spectroscopic Measurement of Burning Stars
Kazuomi Itoh, Dayu Ding, Hiroshi Tajima and Tadao Yoshida* Abstract: The spectroscopic measurement of burning stars has been carried out in order to examine the spectra of the stars, the peak intensity profiles of the spectra, the burning time and behavior, and the effect of filters on the attenuation of peak intensity and the excitation …

Spectroscopic Measurement of Light and Flame of LEDs and Liquid Colors
Kazuomi Itoh, Dayu Ding and Tadao Yoshida* Abstract: Spectra and color values of the light from LEDs and liquid colors were measured using the PMA-11C7473-36 spectrometer as a preliminary study of the color of fireworkflames. The light from LEDs was stable and reproducibly measured. The color values of the light from LEDs did not vary …

Application of Conducting Composition Fuseheads in Pyrotechnic Devices
Vojtech Pelikan Abstract: The electrical properties of bridgeless fuseheads were examined. A conducting composition conducting composition based on the mixture lead styphnate, Viton binder and conductive admixture was used as the fusehead as the fusehead priming mixture. Several types of conducting admixtures, namely two types of natural finely milled graphite and special conducting carbon black, …
