Abstract

The shock temperatures of water under 35–50 GPa are firstly measured by the optical pyrometry technique. C v is a constant below 51 GPa (C v =7.07R), and increases with the temperature above 51 GPa (C v =(5.76+3.84×10−4 T)R). From our calculation, the dissociation has little effect on C v . But the electron is essential to the C v calculation.
