Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Temperature Analysis of Nickel and Invar at High-Energy-Density Conditions

ORAL

Abstract

A critical step in understanding high-energy-density (HED) matter is to characterize the temperature of materials at these extreme conditions. Temperature measurements are historically difficult at low-temperature HED conditions (above 100 GPa and below 5000 K). Extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopy is one of the few experimental techniques capable of constraining temperature at these conditions by measuring the variation in the distances between neighboring atoms. Experimental EXAFS spectra of statically compressed nickel and dynamically compressed invar were analyzed with a Bayesian inference routine to infer the atom positions. These atom positions were related to temperature using a variety of models that highlight the need and diversity of anharmonic corrections at HED conditions. This material is based upon work supported by the Department of Energy [National Nuclear Security Administration] University of Rochester “National Inertial Confinement Fusion Program” under Award Number(s) DE-NA0004144.
