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…
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…
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…
Speed of sound in methane under conditions of planetary interiors
Thomas G. White, Hannah Poole, Emma E. McBride +32
We present direct observations of acoustic waves in warm dense matter. We analyze wave-number- and energy-resolved x-ray spectra taken from warm dense methane created by laser heat…
Setup for meV-resolution inelastic X-ray scattering measurements at the Matter in Extreme Conditions Endstation at the LCLS
E. E. McBride, T. G. White, A. Descamps +24
We describe a setup for performing inelastic X-ray scattering measurements at the Matter in Extreme Conditions (MEC) endstation of the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS). This tech…
