  • pilv, mis väljub tuumarelva maa- või veealuse plahvatuse tõttu moodustunud samba baasist
  • a cloud which rolls out from the bottom of the column produced by a subsurface burst of a nuclear weapon
Good to know
  • Veealuste plahvatuste juures koosneb voog tegelikult piiskade pilvest, mille omaduseks on voolamine, peaaegu nagu oleks tegemist homogeense vedelikuga. Maaaluste plahvatuste puhul koosneb voog väikestest tahketest osakestest, kuid toimib siiski nagu oleks tegemist vedelikuga.
Good to know
  • For underwater bursts the surge is, in effect, a cloud of liquid droplets which has the property of flowing almost as if it were a homogeneous fluid. For subsurface land bursts the surge is made up of small solid particles but still behaves like a fluid.
