Investigation of plasticity mechanisms in shock-compressed matter via femtosecond x-ray diffraction

The microstructural evolution of dynamically-compressed metals has been an area of active research for decades. This work uses a method of x-ray diffraction from highly-textured tantalum foils in order to identify plastic mechanisms mediating plastic deformations in shock-compressed tantalum. The ob...
