Melting and refreezing of zirconium observed using ultrafast x-ray diffraction

Melting and refreezing of zirconium observed using ultrafast x-ray diffraction

Ultrafast (130-fs) x-ray diffraction at the Linac Coherent Light Source has been applied to observe shock melting, which is driven by a rapid (120-ps) laser pulse impinging on a thin (few micrometers) bilayer of aluminum/zirconium. At a pressure of 100 GPa in the aluminum (130 GPa in the zirconium),...
