The study of structure, thermodynamic state, equation of state (EOS) and transport properties
of warm dense matter (WDM) has become one of the key aspects of laboratory astrophysics …

ELI-Beamlines (ELI-BL), one of the three pillars of the Extreme Light Infrastructure
endeavour, will be in a unique position to perform research in high-energy-density-physics …

In this paper I discuss the subject of warm dense matter (WDM), which, apart from being of
academic interest and relevant to inertial fusion capsules, is a subject of importance to those …

Abstract Two-photon polymerization (2PP) offers an attractive option for direct writing micron-
to millimeter-sized laser target components that support high-energy-density plasma physics …

MgO is a major constituent of the MgO-FeO-SiO 2 system that comprises the Earth's mantle
and that of super-Earth exoplanets. Knowledge of its high-pressure behavior is important for …

The properties of silica are important to geophysical and high-pressure equation-of-state
research. Its most-prevalent crystalline form, α-quartz, has been extensively studied to TPa …

Spectral diagnostics provide a powerful probe of high energy-density physics experiments.
By shining an x-ray source on a target, absorption features can be used to determine …

Femtosecond laser direct writing (FsLDW) in transparent materials is a laser-based precise
three-dimensional (3D) micro/nanofabrication method that has shown great potential for …

Wetted-foam layers are of significant interest for inertial-confinement-fusion capsules, due to
the control they provide over the convergence ratio of the implosion and the opportunity this …

Plastic materials (CH) doped with mid-Z elements are used as ablators in inertial
confinement fusion (ICF) capsules and in their surrogates. Hugoniot equation of state (EOS) …
