ABSTRACT:
The present invention and its claims encompass principles, methods, apparatus, and applications for detection, quantification, and monitoring of responses of gases, vapors, aerosols, and mixtures thereof to initiators of exothermic reactions. While the invention can be utilized for any concentration level, the intended, normal utilization is for gases in which the concentrations of species capable of participating in exothermic chemistry are too low to support self-sustaining exothermic reactions leading to detonations or deflagrations as well as for gases in which other factors prevent the exothermic reaction chemistry from becoming self-sustaining.
