Abstract: Abstract Symmetry-breaking instabilities in high- pressure phase transformation produce the counterintuitive phenomenon of “volume collapse” producing only shear radiation, with little, or no, volumetric component, even under conditions of full isotropy, and explain the mystery… read more here.
