High-pressure, high-temperature studies of energetic materials - RDX and HMX
One of the aims of this proposal is to quench to ambient pressure a metastable form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX. This is formed above ~4.5 GPa and 448 K but is... -
High-pressure and variable-temperature studies of RDX
Previous studies have suggested that a high-pressure form of the widely used secondary explosive RDX can be obtained above ~4 GPa and 488 K. This phase is reported to be... -
The Pressure and Temperature Dependence of the Structure of Ammonium Triiodide
We have shown that the molecular ionic solids MI3 (M=Tl, Cs, Tl, NH4) undergo structural phase transitions below 3.4 GPa at RT to give the same new high pressure phase (HP) with... -
Pressure effect on structural phase transition in the Kagome antiferromagnet ...
RBaCo4O7 (R = rare earth ion or Y) compositions belong to class of strongly frustrated antiferromagnets. Their crystal structure is build up of alternating Kagome and triangular...
