The research activities on warm dense matter driven by intense heavy ion beams at the new project High Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) are presented. The ion beam parameters and the simulated accessible state of matter at HIAF are introduced, respectively. The progresses of the developed diagnostics for warm dense matter research including high energy electron radiography, multiple-channel pyrometer, in-situ energy loss and charge state of ion detector are briefly introduced.

高能电子照相是一种新兴的无损探测技术,可以在不拆解客体的情况下对客体材料及其内部结构进行定量测量。与高能质子照相相比,其分辨能力更高,可达到亚μm量级,有望成为介观现象诊断的有力工具。为研究相互作用和成像束线对成像模糊度的影响,采用Geant4模拟软件,建立12 GeV电子束从客体到像平面全过程照相模型,主要分析了成像束线引起的色差模糊、客体纵向长度引起的模糊以及次级粒子造成的模糊。研究结果表明,高能电子照相成像模糊为亚μm量级,其中成像束线引起的色差模糊为主要贡献项,次级粒子和客体纵向长度引起的模糊可以忽略。
