I guess it is a niche topic that has a dark side, I mean, I always found the physics of explosions fascinating but they always come with tragic consequences so this feeling has to be expressed with care and empathy. Still, the physics of these phenomena is just fascinating.
It appears that the part of the cloud that goes straight up is the Fourier transform of the part that is directed to the ground. Near field far field transform.
I don't see a lot of science communication medium tackling the physics of explosions.
Greatly appreciated.

I have a question about the paper is E0 = 514 tonne for the beirut explosion already divided by the reflection correction factor?
yes, the value of E0 reported (514 tonne) already includes the correction by the 1.8 reflection factor
