The results from the X ray bremsstrahlung experiment of Project TriggerAnalysis of the bremsstrahlung X-ray data produced the following conclusions. The counting rate observed before the explosion was an expected normal quiet background. An unexpected increase in the counting rate below 20 keV was observed after the explosion, which may have been an effect of the explosion. A significant 0.13-H2 peak in the power spectral density of the X-ray flux was observed, which is interpreted as evidence for a particle-wave-particle interaction involving a bounce resonance stimulated by the explosion. Dispersed continuation of this interaction may have been responsible for delayed long-term precipitation.
