Abstract

This paper describes an experiment design based on numerical simulations to measure the equation-of-state properties of high-energy-density (HED) matter using intense particle beams. The simulations are performed using a 2D hydrodynamic computer code, BIG2, while the beam parameters are considered to match the Facility for Antiprotons and Ion Research beam. This study has shown that in such experiments one can generate different phases of HED lead. Similar calculations are planned for other materials.
