Studies of dense plasmas in laser generated shock wave experiments
Shock waves generated by laser-driven ablation in solids have provided a great opportunity for the study of dense plasmas. The work presented in this thesis include measurements of Hugoniot curves and the reflectivity of shocked aluminum. In these experiments, planar aluminum targets were irradiated...
