The Shock Physics of Giant Impacts: Key Requirements for the Equations of State
Sarah T. Stewart, Erik J. Davies, Megan S. Duncan +6
We discuss major challenges in modeling giant impacts between planetary bodies, focusing on the equations of state (EOS). During the giant impact stage of planet formation, rocky p…
Shock Response and Phase Transitions of MgO at Planetary Impact Conditions
Seth Root, Luke Shulenburger, Raymond W. Lemke +3
The moon-forming impact and the subsequent evolution of the proto-Earth is strongly dependent on the properties of materials at the extreme conditions generated by this violent col…
Ethane-xenon mixtures under shock conditions
Rudolph J. Magyar, Seth Root, Kyle Cochrane +2
Mixtures of light elements with heavy elements are important in inertial confinement fusion and planetary science. We explore the physics of molecular scale mixing through a valida…
