Overview: For chemists, biochemists, physicists and materials scientists,pressure as an experimental variable represents a tool that providesunique information about the microscopic properties of the materialsbeing studied. In addition to its use as a research tool forinvestigating the energetics, structure, dynamics and kinetics ofmolecular transformations of materials, pressure is also being used tomodify the properties of materials to preserve or improve theirproperties. .The contributions collected here cover the main areas of high pressureresearch, including applications in materials scie
