Nanosecond timescale plasticity in shock-compressed polycrystalline MgO: evidence for transition in mechanism above 100 GPa
A. Chakraborti, H. Ginestet, F. Bertrand +80
The mechanical properties of ceramics under extreme conditions directly impact applications ranging from shielding spacecrafts, designing plasma facing materials in nuclear fusion…
Ultrafast temperature diagnosis of dynamically compressed matter using millielectronvolt inelastic x-ray scattering beyond the first Brillouin zone
P. G. Heighway, J. S. Wark
We present calculations of the millielectronvolt-scale x-ray scattering spectra of multilayered dynamic-compression targets comprising an unstructured ablator layer and a crystalli…
Structural evolution of iron oxides melts at Earth's outer-core pressures
Céline Crépisson, Mila Fitzgerald, Domenic Peake +32
Oxygen and other light elements comprise up to 5 wt% of the Earth's outer-core, and may significantly influence its physical properties and the operation of the geodynamo. Here we…
A Momentum-Resolved X-ray Thomson Scattering Benchmark of Electronic-Response Models in Warm Dense Aluminium
Dmitrii S. Bespalov, Ulf Zastrau, Zhandos A. Moldabekov +58
The robust diagnosis of conditions generated in warm dense matter (WDM) experiments remains a persistent challenge. Here we describe the measurement of shock-compressed aluminium a…
X-ray thermal diffuse scattering as a texture-robust temperature diagnostic for dynamically compressed solids
P. G. Heighway, D. J. Peake, T. Stevens +119
We present a model of x-ray thermal diffuse scattering (TDS) from a cubic polycrystal with an arbitrary crystallographic texture, based on the classic approach of Warren. We compar…
High-Quality Ultra-Fast Total Scattering and Pair Distribution Function Data using an X-ray Free Electron Laser
Adam F. Sapnik, Philip A. Chater, Dean S. Keeble +48
High-quality total scattering data, a key tool for understanding atomic-scale structure in disordered materials, require stable instrumentation and access to high momentum transfer…
Femtosecond temperature measurements of laser-shocked copper deduced from the intensity of the x-ray thermal diffuse scattering
J. S. Wark, D. J. Peake, T. Stevens +122
We present 50-fs, single-shot measurements of the x-ray thermal diffuse scattering (TDS) from copper foils that have been shocked via nanosecond laser-ablation up to pressures abov…
Bounds on heavy axions with an X-ray free electron laser
Jack W. D. Halliday, Giacomo Marocco, Konstantin A. Beyer +18
We present new exclusion bounds obtained at the European X-ray Free Electron Laser facility (EuXFEL) on axion-like particles (ALPs) in the mass range 10^{-3} eV < m_a < 10^4 eV. Ou…
