Abstract
Semiempirical equations of state (EoS) of Au, Pt, MgO, NaCl-B1, and NaCl-B2 based on expanded Mie–Grüneisen–Debye approach, which are consistent both with the Mie–Grüneisen–Bose–Einstein approach and the thermochemical, X-ray, ultrasonic and shock-wave data in a wide pressure-temperature range, have been constructed. It is shown that to determine the volume dependence of the Grüneisen parameter, not only shock-wave and static compression data, but also experimental information on heat capacity, bulk moduli, volume, and thermal expansion coefficient at zero pressure need to be taken into account. Intrinsic anharmonicity is of great importance at construction of EoS at high temperatures and x=V/V 0>1. Cross-comparison of the current equations of state with independent measurements shows that these EoS may be used as the internally consistent and independent pressure scales in a wide range of temperatures and pressures.
