Germany
6th Joint Workshop on High Pressure, Planetary and Plasma Physics (HP4)
| - |
In Göttingen
- The generation and diagnostics of extreme states of matter as appearing in the interior of planets, brown dwarfs and stars is one of the key scientific challenges in a number of scientific fields. These include:
- Generation of such conditions at FLASH and the future free electron laser facility (European XFEL).
- Generation of higher pressures in static experiments both in the laboratory and at synchrotron facilities (PETRA III).
- Development of new diagnostic tools.
- Predictions of high pressure and temperature properties of materials from ab initio methods.
- Application of such results to the study of interior of planetary and astrophysical bodies.
