All papers were peer-reviewed. Shock wave compression represents a unique approach to understanding condensed matter response to extreme conditions and to provide insight into nonlinear wave propagation. This volume embodies the most recent research on shock compression of condensed matter, and includes 349 papers on topics including equation of state, phase transitions, chemical reactions, warm dense matter, fracture, geophysics and planetary science, energetic materials, optical studies, materials modeling, experimental developments, and biological applications of shock waves.
