The transition to the metallic state in alkali and low-Z fluids

We review here experiments that investigate how the electronic properties of five chemically dissimilar fluid elements, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, rubidium and caesium, vary with density beyond their critical points. Remarkably, all five elements in their metallic regime have essentially the same e...
