Equation-of-state experiments in the pressure region near 20 megabars

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7218878
As part of a program to determine equation of state data at high pressures using underground nuclear explosions, a point on the Hugoniot of molybdenum was determined at 2.0 TPa (20 Mbar). The 20 Mbar experiment is described in detail. Another recent experiment, using contact pins, is briefly described. (GHT)
