The Side-Release Method Measures the High-Pressure Sound Velocity of Iron Using Line-Spatially Resolved DISAR by Long Chen, Cangli Liu, Longhuang Tang, Heli Ma, Xing Jia, Tianjiong Tao, Shenggang Liu, Yongchao Chen, Xiang Wang, Jian Wu, Chengjun Li, Dameng Liu, Jidong Weng, Huan Liu

“…At present, the measurement of sound velocity is usually carried out by the catch-up sparse wave method and windowed VISAR technology, which is complex in structure and not highly adaptable. In particular, for the ultra-high pressure sonic velocity measurement of metals, it is limited by the loading platform and window materials and cannot realize the high temperature and high-pressure environment of the earth’s inner core. …”
