Title: New findings in static high-pressure science

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1008923

Recent static high P-T experiments using diamond anvil cell techniques reveal an array of phenomena and provide new links to dynamic compression experiments. Selected recent developments are reviewed, including new findings in hot dense hydrogen, the creation of new metals and superconductors, new transitions in molecular and other low-Z systems, the behavior of iron and transition metals, chemical changes of importance in geoscience and planetary science, and the creation of new classes of high-pressure devices based on CVD diamond. These advances have set the stage for the next set of developments in this rapidly growing area.
