Ultrahigh pressure laser-driven shock wave experiments

Description

We review recent laser-driven shock wave experiments, with a view toward assessing the prospects of making accurate physical properties measurements at ultrahigh pressures. Recent experimental results on the scaling of shock pressure with laser intensity and wavelength are presented, and preliminary impedance matching experiments are discussed
