Abstract

A diagnostic laboratory X-ray diffraction complex has been designed to study the crystal structure under shock loading. Electric explosion of a foil, which accelerates a plane dielectric impactor, is used to generate a plane shock wave. A plasma-focus gas discharge chamber acts as an X-ray source. An automated system for recording X-ray diffraction patterns of shock compressed crystals has been developed on the basis of an image intensifier and a digital CCD camera. Recorded patterns of shock compressed LiF single-crystal structures are presented, which demonstrate that nonequilibrium structural formations have been obtained.
