Abstract

The article gives a description of the history of the development of research of electric explosion of metal conductors, the authors offer a modern view on the physics of the process of electric explosion. The result of such an explosion can be, in particular, the production of nanopowders, which today have found the widest application in industry, agriculture, medicine, and so on.
