Picture this. A flame is ingited prematurely from a hotspot on the far point of the combustion chamber, this flame will then travel towards the spark plug. Whilst the flame is travelling towards the spark. The plug ingites the remaning fuel mixture(on time). The second flame front meets the first causing an extremely high rate of pressure rise.

Detonation can lead to pre-ignition because of the increased surface temps in the chamber. They work hand in hand, one leads to another.

When these flame fronts meet, this is when u may hear a kock or "ping". Or when then the flame front meets the walls of the combustion chamber. Depending on the severaty, u may or may not here a ping.

Remember detonation occurs after the spark plug has ignited its mixture and pre igntion occurs before the mixture is ignited by the spark plug.

Hotspots(causing pre ignitiong)can also occur from overhanging gaskets and Overhated valves

Detonation will only occur when the PRESSURE and TEMPERATURE in the chamber reaches a point where it ignites the remaining gas in the cylinder instantaneously.

Basicly wat trd3sg said but in a bit more detial
Not really on topic, but i hope it helps to give some people a little more understanding.
