Photonic Doppler Velocimetry (PDV) is a fiber-based diagnostic for the extreme conditions
created by high-speed impact, explosive detonation, electrical pulsed power, and intense …

This article discusses tabletop high-throughput laser experiments on shock waves in solids
and liquids, where the more usual laser pump pulse is replaced by a 0.5 mm diameter laser …

利用脉冲大电流装置产生随时间变化平滑上升的磁压力, 实现对平面, 柱面等不同结构样品的磁
驱动准等熵(斜波) 压缩, 为极端条件下材料动力学研究提供了一种偏离Hugoniot …

In this work, we examine initial phases of micro-discharges produced in deionised water by
high-voltage (HV) pulses of nanosecond duration. We apply opto-electrical diagnostics with …

Quasi-isentropic compression enables one to study the solidification of metastable liquid
states that are inaccessible through other experimental means. The onset of this …

The ubiquitous nature and unusual properties of water have motivated many studies on its
metastability under temperature-or pressure-induced phase transformations. Here …

The free energy involved in the formation of an interface between two phases (eg, a solid–
liquid interface) is referred to as the interfacial free energy. For the case of solidification, the …

Classical nucleation theory (CNT) is a promising way to predictively model the
submicrosecond kinetics of phase transitions that occur under dynamic compression, such …

In operando studies of high explosives involve dynamic extreme conditions produced as a
shock wave travels through the explosive to produce a detonation. Here, we describe a …

Ramp-wave dynamic-compression experiments are used to examine quasi-isentropic
loading paths in materials. The gradual and continuous increase in pressure created by …
