“…A study of the fundamental properties of WDM is an important subject as it has wide applications to various branches of basic and applied sciences (Cao et al, 2007;Sasaki et al, 2006;Tahir et al, 2003). Experimental study of equation-of-state of WDM is of considerable interest to the fundamental research of thermodynamic and hydrodynamic behavior of dense plasmas.…”

This paper describes a fast multi-channel radiation pyrometer that was developed for warm dense-matter experiments with intense heavy ion beams at the Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung mbH (GSI). The pyrometer is capable of measuring brightness temperatures from 2000 K to 50,000 K, at six wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared parts of the spectrum, with 5 ns temporal resolution, and several micrometers spatial resolution. The pyrometer's spectral discrimination technique is based on interference filters, which also act as mirrors to allow for simultaneous spectral discrimination of the same ray at multiple wavelengths.

“…The latter scheme, on the other hand, involves a low entropy compression of a sample material like hydrogen or water that is imploded in a multi-layered cylindrical target that is driven by a hollow beam with an annular focal spot or by a beam with a circular focal spot. The former configuration is suitable to study the problem of hydrogen metallization [35,36,38,40,41,53,54] while the latter can be used to study the interiors of the giant planets [48][49][50][51]. In the following, these schemes are described in detail.…”

“…This scheme generates a low-entropy compression that leads to a very high material density with a relatively low temperature. Simulations have shown that using the parameters of the SIS100 beam at the FAIR, one would achieve a hydrogen density of 1 -3 g/cm 3 , a pressure of 3 -30 Mbar and a temperature of a few thousand K. This scheme is therefore more suited to study the problem of hydrogen metallization [35,36,38,40,46,48,54,55].…”

This paper presents a review of the theoretical work that has resulted in a scientific proposal on studies of HighEnergy-Density (HED) states in matter using intense beams of energetic heavy ions that will be available at the future Facility for Antiprotons and Ion Research (FAIR) at Darmstadt [W.F. Henning, Nucl. Inst. Meth B 24 (2003) [725][726][727][728][729]. The proposal is named HEDgeHOB that stands for High Energy Density Matter Generated by Heavy Ion Beams. Two experimental schemes have been worked out for the HEDgeHOB experimental proposal, namely, HIHEX and LAPLAS. The first scheme allows for studies of HED states by isochoric and uniform heating of matter by an intense heavy ion beam that is followed by isentropic expansion of the heated material. Numerical simulations have shown that using the beam parameters that will be available at the FAIR, one can access all the interesting physical states of HED matter including an expanded hot liquid state, twophase liquid-gas region, critical point parameters and strongly coupled plasmas for all the materials of interest. The second scheme involves a low-entropy compression of a test material like hydrogen that is enclosed in a cylindrical shell of a high-Z material like gold or lead. The target can be driven by a hollow or a circular beam. This compression scheme relies on multiple shock reflection between the hydrogen-gold (lead) boundary and the cylinder axis. The hydrodynamic stability of the LAPLAS target has also been analyzed that shows that the implosion is completely stable to Rayleigh-Taylor and Richtmyer-Meshkov instabilities. LAPLAS implosion using a hollow beam is suitable for studying the problem of hydrogen metallization whereas the one employing a circular focal spot leads to physical conditions that are expected to exist in the interiors of the giant planets.
