Abstract

An extremely high pressure (1.74±0.22 TPa) was generated in Ta by using strong shock waves driven by direct irradiation of laser beams from the GEKKO XII glass laser system. The shock velocity was measured directly and the particle velocity and pressure were obtained using an impedance-matching technique by considering the intensity profile of the laser beams.
