{sm_bullet}Four spall experiments have been performed using Atlas {sm_bullet} Purpose was to investigate damage in convergent geometry {sm_bullet} Impact pressures ranged between 45 kbars - 110 kbars {sm_bullet} Diagnostics included VISAR and axial and radial radiographs {sm_bullet} Targets were recovered for post-metallugical analysis
