&Fired in air confinement, unless otherwise noted.
“Number of shots that propagated a steady wave/number of distinct diameters at which observations were made.
ETMD = theoretical maximum density.
“& is the average of the radii from two go/no-go shots, (I~ is one-half the difference in the go/no-go radii.
‘R, fired at 0.0 gives the smallest variance of fit.
