Matter at extreme densities and temperatures is ubiquitous in nature and occurs, e.g., in planetary interiors. In addition, such warm dense matter (WDM) conditions are of high importance to technological applications such as nuclear fusion. Therefore, there has been a remarkable investment in the experimental realization of WDM in large research facilities around the globe, leading to a number of spectacular discoveries. Yet, the absence of a reliable theoretical description of WDM is severely hampering this progress. This is best illustrated by considering hydrogen, the most simple and abundant element in the universe. Even here, a multitude of pressing questions continues to be…
