The Radiation Count Plot showed nothing strange through the whole incident.  
High Voltage Particle Instrumentation is very sensitive to noise, especially 
during explosions.  Any anomaly in Geiger Counting at the time of the explosion 
needs to address this.  A common technique is to run 2 (or more) different 
counting channels (interleaved).  If both (more) channels “burp” at the same 
time, then one can get serious about something occurring (as long as there is 
good isolation between the channels).

... Just some more thought.

Subject: [Vo]:Dogbone BANG Geiger Counter Spiked

Watch the Dogbone BANG run in HD to see these data points.


Geiger counter readings: 
6:14:13, 8e-6
6:16:46, 9e-6
6:17:15, 3.3e-4
a few seconds later BANG


The pressure went down initially from 0.7 to 0.5 the back up to 0.9 but at no 
point did the "PSI" exceed 1.0 so if that was measuring the build up of gas 
pressure energy, there wasn't enough to do anything like what we saw. It might 
have been a rapid conflagration of LiH coming in contact with atmospheric O2 if 
there was a breach just prior to the BANG but there was no indication of such a 
breach that I could see.
