Böcker av E. Yu Tonkov

Comprising two volumes, this publication classifies and systematizes data on phase transformations of 2263 elements and compounds under high pressure (at least 0.1 GPa). It includes data on new materials and compounds synthesized under high pressure.

Offers information for nearly 100 elements about first-and second-phase transitions, melting lines, crystal structures of stable and metastable phases, and the stability of polymorphic modifications. This book describes the transitions of polymeric forms of fullerenes. It is suitable for various disciplines such as solid-state physics.

Aiming to bridge the gap between data obtained at high pressure and that obtained at normal pressure, this volume classifies and systematizes the available data on the behaviour of binary alloys under high pressure.
