… is to measure the shock Hugoniot of the material, giving the ‘shock equation of state’. This
… between shock velocity and particle velocity. For most of materials, the Hugoniot EOS is …

… compression ratio along the principal Hugoniot. The maximum possible singleshock compression
ratio … for beyond-four-times compression. There exist some early attempts in providing …

… shock-compressed liquids through a proper scaling of the RH equations and the dimensionless
Hugoniot … large U s ∗ ⁠, because the compression ratio v ∗ is believed to approach an …

… compression ratio of approximately 4.3 on the Hugoniot. In contrast, previously reported
Hugoniot … the maximum shock compression of LD2 along the principal Hugoniot exceeds sixfold, …

… ” simulations where the Hugoniot is extracted from a “hydrostatic” compression at relatively
small system sizes. Thus, we can easily capture the evolution of the shock without the …

… This representation of the shock Hugoniot is a plot of shock velocity (U) versus particle
velocity (Up). Each cusp, or sudden change in slope, signals the location of a solid-solid phase …

… of Hugoniots, which can test EOS models over a broader range than the principal Hugoniot
… well, agreeing with the observed maximum shock-compression ratio of about sixfold (for 1 …

… new first and second-shock Hugoniot data of shocked LN 2 . Seven shots were performed
in the range of 19–93 GPa to achieve threefold to fourfold compression. Each shot had a …

… the thermodynamic conditions encountered along shock Hugoniot curves. We focus on the
maximum compression ratio reached on shock Hugoniot curves for simple elements that are …

… compression ratio is reduced when the sample is precompressed statically in a diamond anvil
cell before a shock … The principal shock Hugoniot curve of helium is shown as a function of …
