Fig. 2: Hugoniot relations for MgO and (Mg,Fe)O.

a,b, The US versus up (a) and ρ versus P (b) relations based on our shock experiments and impedance-matching method. The horizontal bars indicate ± one standard deviation. The orange–yellow colours indicate MgO, blue colours indicate (Mg0.95,Fe0.05)O and green colours represent (Mg0.98,Fe0.02)O. The tan, grey and dark red plus marks indicate results from previous work40,41,52. The grey lines show the fit to our results together with the previous data. The blue and red cross marks in b represent DFT-MD calculations for B2 and liquid phases, respectively.
