title: Combined pressure and electrical-resistivity measurements of warm dense aluminum and titanium plasmas.
abstract: Electrical resistivity, pressure, and internal energy variation of warm dense correlated titanium (density 0.2 g/cm(3)) and aluminum (density 0.1 g/cm(3)) plasmas are measured using a homogeneous and thermally equilibrated media produced inside an isochoric closed-vessel plasma. These data are compared to detailed calculations based on the density functional theory. In the studied temperature range (15,000-30,000 K), it appears that both exchange-correlation and ion-ion interaction treatments are of great importance to calculate accurate theoretical values.
