Using an ultrafast pulse of mega-electron-volt energy protons accelerated from a laser-irradiated foil, we have heated solid density aluminum plasmas to temperatures in excess of 15 eV. By measuring the temperature and the expansion rate of the heated Al plasma simultaneously and with picosecond time resolution we have found the predictions of the SESAME Livermore equation-of-state (LEOS) tables to be accurate to within 18%, in this dense plasma regime, where there have been few previous experimental measurements.

The thermal conductivity of liquid -1,2-dichloroethene (R-1130(E)) was measured at temperatures ranging from 240 K to 340 K and pressures up to 25 MPa using a transient hot-wire instrument. A total of 447 thermal conductivity data points were measured along six isotherms. Each isotherm includes data at nine pressures, which were chosen to be at equal density increments starting at a pressure of 0.

The speed of sound in bubbly water is an important parameter in the wave equations governing pressure-density relations for turbulent multi-phase flow simulations. Recent molecular simulation results indicate that, for bubbles that are thermodynamically stable at finite volume conditions, the derivative of total pressure P with density ρ has a negative sign, complicating the interpretation of the speed of sound. We show that such a negative compressibility is thermodynamically consistent in a single-component two-phase model at finite volume, and identify an empirically derived equation of state to illustrate that this observation is not an artifact of small simulation length scales.
