Femtosecond Temperature Measurements of Laser-Shocked Copper Deduced from the Intensity of the X-ray Thermal Diffuse Scattering
Academic Background Studying the behavior of materials under extreme conditions (such as high pressure and high temperature) is an important topic in condensed matter physics and materials science. Laser shock technology can apply extremely high pressure to materials on a nanosecond timescale, while X-ray diffraction technology can capture structur...
