Yes, that is correct. Liquid gasoline does not burn without oxygen present.
Explosives have all of the needed ingredients 'built in" so they do not require
extra oxygen from the air.

I was considering the gasoline vapor ignition question further and thought that
a simple math example of the effect would shed light upon the subject. An
intense amount of local heating is generated when a small region of vapor mix
is ignited by some means. This released heat energy then pr

A further thought. Consider the fuel intake valve of an automobile. We all
know that these can not be perfect and thus allow absolute isolation between
the extremely hot gases within the cylinder and the intake mixture. Some
explosive gas and heat must get to the intake mix but it does not i
Let me give this a try. I suspect that the magnitude of energy delivered by
the UV rays is not quite enough to allow ignition of a small region of the

Hi Jones,
You are probably correct, but that just shifts the definition of the problem.
The question then becomes, "why is density important?"
(I'm looking for an answer involving a molecular level analysis.)

Sunlight will cause ignition, with only slight focusing.
Magnifying glass is sufficient. Be my guest to try it, but stand back...
This indicates that it is not only energy per photon that is important, but
energetic photon-density per unit area.

It can be extremely useful to incorporate 45 megawatts of LENR power into a
stealth aircraft.
This capability will allow the stealth aircraft designer a true UFO like
performance via a hybrid ion jet engine.
