Zero Temperature Phases of the Electron Gas

Abstract

The stability of different phases of the three-dimensional non-relativistic electron gas is analyzed using stochastic methods. With decreasing density, we observe a {\it continuous} transition from the paramagnetic to the ferromagnetic fluid, with an intermediate stability range ($25\pm 5\le r_s\le 35\pm 5$) for the {\it partially} spin-polarized liquid. The freezing transition into a ferromagnetic Wigner crystal occurs at $r_s=65\pm 10$. We discuss the relative stability of different magnetic structures in the solid phase, as well as the possibility of disordered phases.
