The Hugoniot curves for shock-compressed molybdenum with initial porosities of 1.0, 1.26, 1.83, and 2.31 are theoretically investigated. The method of calculations combines the first-principles treatment for zero- and finite-temperature…

We develop a new equation of state (EoS) table involving thermal (anti)kaons, Bose-Einstein condensate of $K^{-}$ mesons and $\Lambda$-hyperons for core-collapse supernova and neutron star merger simulations. This EoS table is based on a…

In this paper we present computations of the integrated metal-ion column densities produced in the post-shock cooling layers behind fast, radiative shock-waves. For this purpose, we have constructed a new shock code that calculates the…

We investigate the cubic to tetragonal phase transition in the pressure-temperature phase diagram of strontium titanate SrTiO3 (STO) by means of Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction on single crystal samples. X-ray diffraction…

We present a new approach to measure the power-law temperature density relationship $T=T_0 (\rho / \bar{\rho})^{\gamma -1}$ and the UV background photoionization rate $\Gamma_{\rm HI}$ of the IGM based on the Voigt profile decomposition of…

Recently, a method to achieve a "natural hot-ion mode" was suggested, by utilizing ion viscous heating in a rotating plasma with a fixed boundary. We explore the steady-state solution to the Braginskii equations and find the parameter…

Particles are heated efficiently through energy conversion processes such as shocks and magnetic reconnection in collisionless plasma environments. While empirical scaling laws for the temperature increase have been obtained, the precise…

We investigate the dissociation and ionization equilibria of deuterium fluid over a wide range of temperatures and densities. The partition functions for molecular and atomic species are evaluated, in a statistical-mechanically consistent…

Ion resonance instability of toroidal electron plasmas in a tight aspect ratio axisymmetric toroidal device is reported for ${Ar}^+$ ions of different initial density values using a high fidelity 3D3V PIC solver. Stability of a recently…

We propose a means for constructing highly accurate equations of state (EOS) for elemental solids and liquids essentially from first principles, based upon a particular decomposition of the underlying condensed matter Hamiltonian for the…

Equations of state (EOS) calculated from a computationally efficient atom-in-jellium treatment of the electronic structure have recently been shown to be consistent with more rigorous path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) and quantum molecular…

Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to investigate the thermal and mass accommodation coefficients (TAC and MAC, respectively) for the combination of iron(-oxide) and air. The obtained values of TAC and MAC are then used in a…

Recent years have brought more precise temperature measurements of the low-density intergalactic medium (IGM). These new measurements constrain the processes that heated the IGM, such as the reionization of H I and of He II. We present a…

We report here the first equation of state measurements of Fe$_2$O$_3$ obtained with laser-driven shock compression. The data are in excellent agreement with previous dynamic and static compression measurements at low pressure, and extend…

We develop an efficient method to study the effects of reionization history on the temperature-density relation of the intergalactic medium in the low density limit (overdensity less than 5). It is applied to the study of photo-reionization…

We argue that stochastic and resonant ion heating, often viewed as distinct processes in low-$\beta$ collisionless plasmas, are the far limits of a continuum controlled by nonlinear broadening of turbulent fluctuations, and thus by the…

Measurements of electrical resistivity ($\rho$), DC magnetization ($M$) and specific heat ($C$) have been performed on layered oxide Li$_x$CoO$_2$ (0.25$\leq$$x$$\leq$0.99) using single crystal specimens. The $\rho$ versus temperature ($T$)…

Titanium dioxide has been extensively studied in the rutile or anatase phases, while its high-pressure phases are less well understood, despite that many are thought to have interesting optical, mechanical and electrochemical properties.…

We present a study of hydrogen at pressures higher than molecular dissociation using the Coupled Electron-Ion Monte Carlo method. These calculations use the accurate Reptation Quantum Monte Carlo method to estimate the electronic energy and…

We present results from long-term, numerical-relativity simulations of binary neutron star mergers modeled using both, fully tabulated, finite-temperature, equations of state and their corresponding hybrid representations. The simulations…
