Description	Journal: Physics World If, in this season of bonfires and fireworks, you find yourself holding a sparkler, you might like to consider the remarkable chemical reaction that is taking place before your eyes. You are actually witnessing a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis reaction – one in which the energy generated by the reaction of magnesium and oxygen to form magnesium oxide is enough to overwhelm the usual reluctance of the reactants to burn. The process leads to a chain reaction that sees a "solid flame" make its way down the length of the sparkler.
