Abstract

The composition and the effective adiabatic exponent of the plasma of the breakdown channel for the elements making up rocks and minerals are calculated under conditions of technological electroexplosion. It is shown that the effective adiabatic exponent can be increased by introducing into the breakdown channel metals of the first group via electric explosion of a conductor.
