Femtosecond diffraction studies of solid and liquid phase changes in shock-compressed bismuth

Bismuth has long been a prototypical system for investigating phase transformations and melting at high pressure. Despite decades of experimental study, however, the lattice-level response of Bi to rapid (shock) compression and the relationship between structures occurring dynamically and those obse...
