Explosive experts dismantle the bomb, or what's left of it, and analyze how it was made. They take note of the materials used, how it was wired together, ect. Coupled with other facts such as where the bomb was planted can give hints to who the responsible party was. As with fingerprints, no two bomb makers will make identical explosives.
