Understanding phase transitions of α-quartz under dynamic compression conditions by machine-learning driven atomistic simulations

Abstract Characteristic shock effects in quartz serve as a key indicator of historic impacts at geologic sites. Despite this geologic significance, atomistic details of structural transformations of quartz under high pressure and shock compression remain poorly understood. This ambiguity is evidence...
