The high power lasers are today an important tool for studying matter under extreme conditions, characterized by density greater than the solid density, moderate temperatures (T ≈ a few eV) and pressures in 1-10 Mbar range. The behavior and physical properties of this matter are still poorly understood, both theoretically and experimentally, and far from trivial to be simulated numerically. We...
