We calculate the quasiclassical probability to emerge the quantum fluctuation which gives rise to the quark-matter drop with interface propagating as the self-similar spherical detonation wave (DN) in the ambient nuclear matter. For this purpose, we make use of instanton method which is known in the quantum field theory.
