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 …
Nonideal Mixing Effects in Warm Dense Matter Studied with First-Principles Computer Simulations
Burkhard Militzer, Felipe Gonzalez-Cataldo, Shuai Zhang +3
We study nonideal mixing effects in the regime of warm dense matter (WDM) by computing the shock Hugoniot curves of BN, MgO, and MgSiO_3. First, we derive these curves from the equ…
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…
Phase transformation in boron under shock compression
Shuai Zhang, Heather D. Whitley, Tadashi Ogitsu
Using first-principles molecular dynamics, we calculated the equation of state and shock Hugoniot of various boron phases. We find a large mismatch between Hugoniots based on exist…
Equation of state of warm-dense boron nitride combining computation, modeling, and experiment
Shuai Zhang, Amy Lazicki, Burkhard Militzer +18
The equation of state (EOS) of materials at warm dense conditions poses significant challenges to both theory and experiment. We report a combined computational, modeling, and expe…
