Abstract
A method for studying the quasi-isentropic compressibility of condensed substances was tested using an experiment with a lead shell. This method utilizes multi-frame radiography and explosive spherical loading devices with gas symmetrization. At maximum compression, the average density of the lead shell was ≈52.3 g/cm3, with a compression ratio of ≈4.6. The total pressure in the lead at maximum compression was ≈3.2 TPa, with the cold component equal to ≈94% and the thermal component ≈6%. The pressure values were obtained from a one-dimensional numerical calculation, which accurately describes the compression dynamics of the lead shell, using the ROSA-MI EOS for lead.
