Effects of overdriven shock states on the equation of state of 9404 explosive

Abstract
Shock wave data above the Chapman Jouguet state of 9404 have been corrected with an improved molybdenum standard equation of state that includes an explicit description of its strength. The results indicate that a large second derivative of pressure with respect to volume is needed to join the isentrope constructed from the Hugoniot data to the expansion isentrope of the Jones–Wilkins–Lee equation of state (EOS) in use now. Possible reasons for this abnormal behavior in the EOS are discussed.
