  * From Andy - Flare articles - JWM, Vol 2, 1970 has a bunch of articles by Pierre St. Amand and his group, including Bill Finnegan, on pyrotechnic seeding flares. They discuss composition of the flares and conjecture about what is produced by burning them. This was oItemsne of the early volumes scanned by Don Duckering that you cannot search as text. You have to download the whole volume as one chunk and search it by eye. There are additional articles by this same group in Vol 3, 1971. There is one additional article that might be useful in the JWM 1989 volume. The article by Deng and Finnegan is “An Efficient, Fast Functioning Nucleating Agent -- AgI'AgCl-4NaCl”. Finnegan helped ICE develop flares that would make these AgI – NaCl complexes. I know you can’t get compounds exactly by mass spectrometer, but you can look at  ratios of elements to see if they are consistent with certain mixtures of  compounds or complexes.  * From Andy - Flare articles - JWM, Vol 2, 1970 has a bunch of articles by Pierre St. Amand and his group, including Bill Finnegan, on pyrotechnic seeding flares.
