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…
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…
Solid-to-solid phase transition from amorphous carbon to graphite nanocrystal induced by intense femtosecond x-ray pulses
J. Gaudin, J. Chalupský, M. Toufarová +22
We present the results of an experiment where amorphous carbon was irradiated by femtosecond x-ray free electron laser pulses. The 830 eV laser pulses induce a phase transition in…
