Abstract
Shock-compression experiments were performed on V-O alloys $({\mathrm{VO}}_{0.10},$ ${\mathrm{VO}}_{0.18},$ ${\mathrm{VO}}_{0.28})$ to 130 GPa using a propellant gun and a two-stage light-gas gun. Approximately linear relations were found for the shock velocity and particle velocity for the three alloys. Comparison of the pressure dependence of the oxygen-induced volume in the V-O alloys with reported data on elemental oxygen leads us to envisage a universal compression curve of oxygen atoms placed in metallic environments.
