Kinetics of propagating phase transformation in compressed bismuth
Marina Bastea, Sorin Bastea, James A. Emig +2
We observed dynamically driven phase transitions in isentropically compressed bismuth. By changing the stress loading conditions we explored two distinct cases: one in which the ex…
Comment on "Metallization of Fluid Nitrogen and the Mott Transition in Highly Compressed Low-Z Fluids"
Marina Bastea
A comment on ``Metallization of Fluid Nitrogen and the Mott Transition in Highly Compressed Low-Z Fluids'' by Chau et al, Phys. Rev. Lett. 90, 245501 (2003).
Electrical conductivity of lithium at megabar pressures
Marina Bastea, Sorin Bastea
We report measurements of the electrical conductivity of a liquid alkali metal - lithium - at pressures up to 1.8 Mbar and fourfold compression, achieved through shock compression…
High Pressure Insulator-Metal Transition in Molecular Fluid Oxygen
Marina Bastea, Arthur C. Mitchell, William J. Nellis
We report the first experimental evidence for a metallic phase in fluid molecular oxygen. Our electrical conductivity measurements of fluid oxygen under dynamic quasi-isentropic co…
