We estimate the quasiclassical probability of the homogeneous nuclear matter transition to a strange matter when a detonation wave propagates radially inside a sphere of nuclear matter. For this purpose we make use of instanton method which is known in the quantum field theory.
We show that an electronic beam passing through the collisionless plasma of the "cold" ions and the "hot" Boltzmann electrons can give rise to the propagation of the supersonic ion-acoustic rarefaction shock waves. These waves are analogous to those predicted by Zeldovich [5] in gasodynamics and complementary to the ion-acoustic compression shock waves in collisionless plasma described by Sagdeev [3].
