Ionic structure of high pressure, high temperature fluids is a challenging theoretical problem with applications to planetary interiors and fusion capsules. Here we report a multi-messenger platform using velocimetry and \textit{in situ} angularly and spectrally resolved X-ray scattering to measure the thermodynamic conditions and ion structure factor of materials at extreme pressures. We document the pressure, density, and temperature of shocked silicon near 100 GPa with uncertainties of 6%, 2%, and 20%, respectively. The measurements are sufficient to distinguish between and rule out some ion screening models.
