This review is concerned with the results of studies into the behavior of substances at ultimately high pressures and temperatures obtainable by way of kinetic or electromagnetic energy cumulation in laboratory conditions. Also considered are the diversified states of matter and the processes occurring under gravitational forces and thermonuclear energy release.
