models for the description of detonation chemistry in organic molecular materials. Resulting
models enable simulations on the several 10s of ps scales characteristic to these processes,
with “quantum-accuracy.” We use this approach to investigate early shock chemistry in 3, 4-
bis (3-nitrofurazan-4-yl) furoxan, a hydrogen-free energetic material known to form onion-
like nanocarbon particulates following detonation. We find that the ensuing chemistry is …
