Default how does nitrous cause detonation ??

How does nitrous cause detonation ?

i can understand u need to add more fuel when u spray, cause of the added oxygen in the combustion and for cooling purposes...

but whats happening inside the engine that makes it so u have to take the timming down when u spray nitrous?
