The Impact Factor measures the average number of citations received in a particular year by papers published in the journal during the two preceding years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) IF: 0.7 To calculate the five year Impact Factor, citations are counted in 2017 to the previous five years and divided by the source items published in the previous five years. 2017 Journal Citation Reports (Clarivate Analytics, 2018) 5-Year IF: 0.7 The Immediacy Index is the average number of times an article is cited in the year it is published. The journal Immediacy Index indicates how quickly articles in a journal are cited. Immediacy Index: 0.1 The Eigenfactor score, developed by Jevin West and Carl Bergstrom at the University of Washington, is a rating of the total importance of a scientific journal. Journals are rated according to the number of incoming citations, with citations from highly ranked journals weighted to make a larger contribution to the eigenfactor than those from poorly ranked journals. Eigenfactor: 0.00016 The Journal Citation Indicator (JCI) is a single measurement of the field-normalized citation impact of journals in the Web of Science Core Collection across disciplines. The key words here are that the metric is normalized and cross-disciplinary. JCI: 0.18 SJR: 0.313 SNIP: 0.6 CiteScore™:: 1.6 H-Index: 16

ABSTRACT

The ignition delay of pressed samples of an Ammonium Nitrate/Magnesium/Ammonium Dichromate mixture was measured under CO2 laser radiation over a pressure range from 0.1 to 1 MPa. The unusual results obtained are explained in terms of chemical interactions at the surface layer of the irradiated solid propellant samples. After a very short period of preliminary heating, decomposition of Ammonium Nitrate begins which proceeds, on the one hand, as endothermic dissociation followed by formation of magnesium nitrate and, on the other hand, as a reaction of water and laughing gas production followed in turn by very exothermic reaction of water with magnesium. These two forms of chemical interaction are responsible for the very high ignition delay of the irradiated AN/AD/Mg propellant as well as for the sensible and unexpected changes in the slope of log ti versus log q line for increasing operating pressure.
