Eggert Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Large lasers like JANUS, Omega and NIF can drive very high-pressure compression waves into all types of samples, but the techniques developed there have also been transferred to both synchrotron and XFEL external x-ray sources. I will concentrate on laser driven dynamic materials studies at these facilities, reviewing the development of EOS and diffraction experiments at large lasers and the impressive new experiments that are now possible using High quality X-ray sources. Dr. Jon H. Eggert, Chief Scientist, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Dr. Jon Eggert uses large lasers to compress materials into the High Energy Density (HED) regime. He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University and did post-docs at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), Institute of Physics in Beijing and the Carnegie Institution of Washington, Geophysical Laboratory. Before moving to LLNL, He was a professor at Pomona College and the Colorado School of Mines, and he spend two years as a visiting scientist at the Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique (CEA) de Bruyères-le-Châtel in Paris. He switched from DAC static high-pressure experiments to laser-driven dynamic-compression experiments after moving to LLNL. He led the design and implementation of pre-compressed DAC, x-ray diffraction, and ramp-compression EOS platforms at both the Omega and the NIF laser facilities. He is excited to currently be directing efforts to develop new diagnostics for laser-driven dynamic-compression experiments at synchrotrons and XFELs, especially the push to field dynamic-compression experiments at repetition rates faster than 1 Hz. ________________________________ For more information, or to recommend future speakers contact Seminar Organizer, Tracy Vogler at tjvogle@sandia.gov<mailto:tjvogle@sandia.gov> or the GCCM Secretary/Treasurer Matt Lane at jlane@sandia.gov<mailto:jlane@sandia.gov>.
