Shock and release of tantalum studied via molecular dynamics and femtosecond x-ray diffraction

<p>The response of solid matter to shock compression is complexified considerably by its strength, or its ability to withstand shear stress. Strength is challenging to measure experimentally under shock conditions and even harder to model, due to its being an extremely complicated function of...
