    • To introduce a systematic analytical scheme for explosive residue detection.
    • To validate the proposed scheme using test explosions.
    • To highlight the importance of identifying reaction products in explosive analysis.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of a systematic analytical protocol for explosive residue analysis.
    • Conducting controlled test explosions with commercial, military, and homemade explosives.
    • Utilizing advanced analytical techniques for reaction product identification.

    Main Results:

    • Successful demonstration of the systematic analysis scheme across different explosive categories.
    • Identification of key reaction products indicative of specific explosive types.
    • Validation of the scheme's effectiveness in characterizing explosive events.

    Conclusions:

    • The presented scheme provides a robust framework for systematic explosive residue analysis.
    • Reaction product identification is a significant factor in accurately determining the nature of explosives used.
    • This method enhances forensic capabilities in post-blast investigations.
