New ways of estimating the energy of pulsed sources,according to the results from recording acoustic waves in the atmosphere

The problem of developing relations that allow us to increase the accuracy of estimates for energy E of a pulsed source of acoustic waves in the atmosphere is solved by generalizing experimental data on time t _R+ of pressure growth to the peak value P ₊ in the first positive phase of acoustic signals from different sources in a wide range of energies (10^?8 < E < 10¹⁰ kg of TNT) and reduced distances (10 < RE ^?1/3 < 4 × 10⁴ m kg^?1/3). In addition to a new way of estimating energy E of a pulsed source, a way of estimating distance R from the source is also proposed. Innovative science also reveals a change in the law of the increase in parameter t _R+ as distance R from a source grows.
