Absolute equation of state measurements on shocked liquid deuterium up to 200 GPa (2 Mbar)

…, BA Hammel, JD Kilkenny, RJ Wallace, M Ross… - Physical review …, 1997 - APS
We present results of the first measurements of density, shock speed, and particle speed in
liquid deuterium compressed by laser-generated shock waves to pressures from 25 to 210 …

Soft‐sphere equation of state

WG Hoover, M Ross, KW Johnson… - The Journal of …, 1970 - pubs.aip.org
The pressure and entropy for soft‐sphere particles interacting with an inverse twelfth‐power
potential are determined using the Monte Carlo method. The solid‐phase entropy is …

Systematics of transition-metal melting

…, B Schwager, R Ditz, C Gessmann, R Boehler, M Ross - Physical Review B, 2001 - APS
We report high-pressure measurements for the melting curve of Ti, V, Cr, Mo, Ta, W, Fe, Co,
and Ni. Measurements were made in a laser-heated diamond-anvil-cell to nearly 100 GPa …

A high‐density fluid‐perturbation theory based on an inverse 12th‐power hard‐sphere reference system

M Ross - The Journal of Chemical Physics, 1979 - pubs.aip.org
A variational theory is developed that is accurate at normal liquid densities and densities up
to 4 times that of the argon triple point. This theory uses the inverse 12th-power potential as …

Temperature measurements and dissociation of shock-compressed liquid deuterium and hydrogen

NC Holmes, M Ross, WJ Nellis - Physical Review B, 1995 - APS
Temperatures of shock compressed liquid deuterium and hydrogen up to 5200 K were
measured at pressures up to 83 GPa (830 kbar). The measurements are in excellent agreement …

The ice layer in Uranus and Neptune—diamonds in the sky?

M Ross - Nature, 1981 - nature.com
Many of the current models of Uranus and Neptune postulate a three-layer structure,
consisting of an inner rocky core, a middle ‘ice’ layer of fluid, H 2 O, CH 4 , NH 3 and an outer …

Shielded-needle technique for surgically implanting radio-frequency transmitters in fish

MJ Ross, CF Kleiner - The Progressive Fish-Culturist, 1982 - Taylor & Francis
Esocids were seasonally distributed in areas of the reservoir where temperatures were most
favorable for their survival and growth. The upper lethal temperature for northern pike is …

Equation of state and melting curve of helium to very high pressure

DA Young, AK McMahan, M Ross - Physical Review B, 1981 - APS
An" exponential-six" interatomic pair potential, together with accurate statistical models for
solid and liquid phases, is shown to yield good agreement with experimental pressure-volume …

Melting of LiF and NaCl to 1 Mbar: Systematics of ionic solids at extreme conditions

R Boehler, M Ross, DB Boercker - Physical Review Letters, 1997 - APS
We report the first diamond cell data for the melting curves of LiF and NaCl up to 1 Mbar (100
GPa). The melting curve of NaCl is in agreement with shock data and shows a break in …

Melting curve of aluminum in a diamond cell to 0.8 Mbar: implications for iron

R Boehler, M Ross - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1997 - Elsevier
The melting curve of aluminum was measured in a laser-heated diamond cell up to a
pressure of 0.8 Mbar in order to test the agreement between this technique and shock wave …
