Informing spectral models for dense plasmas with K-edge absorption measurements of warm dense copper
T. Cordova, E. V. Marley, D. A. Chin +14
Warm dense matter remains a challenging regime to characterize experimentally and to model with predictive accuracy. Recent experimental platforms have been developed to generate,…

Ionization and temperature measurements in warm dense copper using x-ray absorption spectroscopy
T. Cordova, E. V. Marley, D. A. Chin +12
We detail experimental results inferring ionization and temperature for warm dense copper plasmas at several times solid density (15 to 25 g/cm) and temperatures of 10 to 21 eV…

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…
