abstract = {In the warm dense matter (WDM) regime, where condensed,
gas, and plasma phases coexist, matter frequently exhibits
unusual properties that cannot be described by contemporary
theory. Experiments reporting phenomena in WDM are therefore
of interest to advance our physical understanding of this
regime, which is found in dwarf stars, giant planets, and
fusion ignition experiments. Using 7.1 keV X-ray free
electron laser radiation (nominally 5×105 J/cm$^2$), we
produced and probed transient WDM in liquid water.
Wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS) from the probe reveals a
new ~9 Å structure that forms within 75 fs. By
100 fs, the WAXS peak corresponding to this new structure
is of comparable magnitude to the ambient water peak, which
is attenuated. Simulations suggest that the experiment
probes a superposition of two regimes. In the first,
fluences expected at the focus severely ionize the water,
which becomes effectively transparent to the probe. In the
second, out-of-focus pump radiation produces O$^{1+}$ and
O$^{2+}$ ions, which rearrange due to Coulombic repulsion
over 10 s of fs. Our simulations account for a decrease in
ambient water signal and an increase in low-angle X-ray
scattering but not the experimentally observed 9 Å
feature, presenting a new challenge for theory.},
