Atom-in-jellium equations of state and melt curves in the white dwarf regime

Damian C. Swift, Thomas Lockard, Sebastien Hamel +4

Atom-in-jellium calculations of the electron states, and perturbative calculations of the Einstein frequency, were used to construct equations of state (EOS) from around

Benchmarking boron carbide equation of state using computation and experiment

Shuai Zhang, Michelle C. Marshall, Lin H. Yang +13

Boron carbide (BC) is of both fundamental scientific and practical interest in inertial confinement fusion (ICF) and high energy density physics experiments. We report the resu…

Comparison of ablators for the polar direct drive exploding pusher platform

Heather D. Whitley, G. Elijah Kemp, Charles Yeamans +36

We examine the performance of pure boron, boron carbide, high density carbon, and boron nitride ablators in the polar direct drive exploding pusher (PDXP) platform. The platform us…

Carbon ionization at Gbar pressures: an ab initio perspective on astrophysical high-density plasmas

Mandy Bethkenhagen, Bastian B. L. Witte, Maximilian Schörner +6

A realistic description of partially-ionized matter in extreme thermodynamic states is critical to model the interior and evolution of the multiplicity of high-density astrophysica…

Equations of state for ruthenium and rhodium

Damian C. Swift, Thomas Lockard, Olivier Heuze +8

Ru and Rh are interesting cases for comparing equations of state (EOS), because most general purpose EOS are semi-empirical, relying heavily on shock data, and none has been report…

Application of Doppler Broadened Gamma Spectroscopy to Study the Surface of Graphene

A. H. Weiss, V. A. Chirayath, R. W. Gladen +4

We present Doppler broadened gamma spectra, obtained using the newly developed advanced positron beam at the University of Texas at Arlington, from a sample consisting of 6 to 8 la…
