Held for the second time in the UK, the international conference in explosives and other energetics took place in June 2024. These conferences host international academics and practitioners who share and showcase research undertaken in this area. Particularly important is the part the UK plays, as one of the world leaders in this area, with the opportunity to provide unclassified and novel research.

This book contains the proceedings of this meeting and comprises unique, peer reviewed papers which are highly desirable for researchers in this field. Divided into two sections on synthesis, characterisation and diagnostics and artificial intelligence, simulation and modelling, the book captures the fundamental science of explosives and energetic materials that underpins deeper understanding of explosives, propellants, pyrotechnics and gas generators. All professionals from early careers through to subject matter experts will find topics of interest in this snapshot of research.
