Equation of state of molecular hydrogen and deuterium from shock-wave experiments to 760 kbar

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. A; (United States)
We have carried out single-shock experiments with liquid deuterium to 210 kbar (Troughly-equal4800 K) and reflected experiments to 760 kbar (Troughly-equal7000 K) as well as single-shock experiments with liquid hydrogen to 100 kbar (Troughly-equal3300 K). These data enable us to determine a theoretical spherically symmetric, effective intermolecular pair potential. Calculated solid isotherms are compared with recent static measurements.
