The red dots represent the pressure extracted at delays of 300 ps and 500 ps for copper by this work, the squares and triangle corresponds to previous published results58,59. The blue area represents the experimental compression factor at convergence within experimental uncertainties. The blue dashed line is states reached for Cu according to hydrodynamic simulations, and the brown and orange lines are Fe and C simulations.
