Abstract: 

1. Inductance Coil Gun – computer simulation and measurements
Some topics related to electromagnetic catapulting of macroscopic objects will be presented.
Speaker: Eng. Andrzej Horodeński, MSc (NCBJ)

2. Concept of a magnetohydrodynamic ignition of not very sensitive explosives
A novel way to ignite explosives will be proposed. The proposed concept might improve safety of ammunition handling.
Speaker: Dr. Cezary Pochrybniak (NCBJ)
