Description
Experiments with single and double shock compression of the materials
provide background for the development of equation of state
(EOS) of the material under high pressure. Double compression
compared to single compression provides smaller growth of the internal
energy, the states that occur due to this phenomenon are
observed below Hugoniot curve, approaching to isotherm. The fact
helps to understand the value of the experiments with double compression
conducted in order to investigate into the states of matter
and its EOS under high pressures.
The work describes the setup and results of the experiments where
two modes of shock-wave collision were observed. Synchrotron
radiation was used to register processes of incident shock wave
propagation and collision, as well as reflected shock wave formation.
The experiments were conducted using accelerator of the Budker
Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS.
