The research of a method of absolute measurement for laser-driven high pressure equation of state

Numerical simulations of the whole physical process of aluminum flyer-vacuum-target directly driven by high power laser were presented. Simulation results showed that a symmetric impact will be realized between the flyer and the target and there is a wide stable area of shock wave propagation in the target if the parameters of flyer-vacuum-target and the conditions of laser match. And the absolute measurement of equation of state (EOS) may be approached if the structure parameters of flyer both-side-step-target are chosen reasonably. At the same time, the experimental researches of absolute measurement for EOS were conducted, and the experimental results are in accord with the simulation results on the whole
