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…

Volume Collapse Without a Structural Transition in Shock-Compressed FeO

C. Crépisson, T. Stevens, M. Fitzgerald +121

We report x-ray diffraction and emission spectroscopy of FeO under laser-driven shock compression between 31-199 GPa. FeO retains the B1 (rocksalt) structure along the Hugoniot to…

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…

time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy of shock-loaded magnesiosiderite

Anand Prashant Dwivedi, Jean-Alexis Hernandez, Sofia Balugani +12

Carbonate minerals are important in Earth's system sciences and have been found on Mars and in meteorites and asteroids, highlighting the importance of impacts in planetary process…

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…

Shock-driven amorphization and melt in FeO

Céline Crépisson, Alexis Amouretti, Marion Harmand +28

We present measurements on FeO amorphization and melt under laser-driven shock compression up to 209(10) GPa via time-resolved in situ x-ray diffraction. At 122(3) GPa, a d…

Laser-driven shock compression and equation of state of FeO up to 700 GPa

Alexis Amouretti, Marion Harmand, Bruno Albertazzi +7

We report here the first equation of state measurements of FeO obtained with laser-driven shock compression. The data are in excellent agreement with previous dynamic and s…

Phase transitions of FeO under laser shock compression

A. Amouretti, C. Crépisson, S. Azadi +22

We present in-situ x-ray diffraction and velocity measurements of FeO under laser shock compression at pressures between 38-116 GPa. None of the phases reported by static c…

Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering in warm-dense Fe compounds beyond the SASE FEL resolution limit

Alessandro Forte, Thomas Gawne, Karim K. Alaa El-Din +19

Resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) is a widely used spectroscopic technique, providing access to the electronic structure and dynamics of atoms, molecules, and solids. Howe…
