We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

limit imposed on speed, exposure time and light-gathering power of veryhigh-speed cameras is the imagination of the investigator. A brief survey of the references listed below the chart in Table I will make it obvious that this limit has proved to be only a minor handicap in pushing toward better cameras for the study of explosives.
