Abstract
The K isotherms of molecular and as well as the index of refraction to 370 kbar have been measured with a diamond-anvil cell. The hydrogens are somewhat softer than predicted from extrapolation of low-pressure measurements and the transition to the metallic atomic state is predicted to fall between 1.9 and 5.6 Mbar.
