Summary
Unveiling the Secrets of Extreme Matter: Foundations of High-Energy-Density Physics
High-energy-density physics delves into the behavior of matter under extraordinary conditions, far exceeding the temperatures and densities found on Earth. This realm governs phenomena in normal stars, supernovae, active galaxies, and the cores of planets. On Earth, high-energy-density matter emerges in nuclear explosions and specialized laboratories utilizing powerful lasers or pulsed-power devices.…
