Spectral Functions of the Uniform Electron Gas via Coupled-Cluster Theory and Comparison to the and Related Approximations

James McClain, Johannes Lischner, Thomas Watson +5

We use, for the first time, ab initio coupled-cluster theory to compute the spectral function of the uniform electron gas at a Wigner-Seitz radius of . The coupled-…

The electron elevator: excitations across the band gap via a dynamical gap state?

A. Lim, W. M. C. Foulkes, A. P. Horsfild +4

We have used time-dependent density functional theory to study self-irradiated Si. We calculate the electronic stopping power of Si in Si by evaluating the energy transferred to th…

Water on hexagonal boron nitride from diffusion Monte Carlo

Yasmine S. Al-Hamdani, Ming Ma, Dario Alfè +2

Despite a recent flurry of experimental and simulation studies, an accurate estimate of the interaction strength of water molecules with hexagonal boron nitride is lacking. Here we…
