Abstract

Recent trends in shock compression research and essential points of view are briefly reviewed. Such aspects have led to the development of SCARQ (Shock compression and Rapid Ouenching) method for exploring new materials, especially carbon. Some examples of new carbon phases and applications to investigating the transition mechanism from graphite to diamond are also reviewed in order to verify the SCARQ method.
