Abstract: A sample holder for a system for analyzing energetic materials, including a first holder element having a first heating element, the heating element embodied as a resistance heater and having at least one first sample region provided for accommodating a sample. A second holder element having a second heating element, the heating element embodied as a resistance heater and having at least one second sample region provided for being brought into contact with a sample. A device for connecting the holder elements so as to enclose a sample between the first sample region and the second sample region.
