Path integral Monte Carlo simulations of dense carbon-hydrogen plasmas
Shuai Zhang, Burkhard Militzer, Lorin X. Benedict +3
Carbon-hydrogen plasmas and hydrocarbon materials are of broad interest to laser shock experimentalists, high energy density physicists, and astrophysicists. Accurate equations of…
Comparing Jupiter interior structure models to Juno gravity measurements and the role of a dilute core
S. M. Wahl, W. B. Hubbard, B. Militzer +10
The Juno spacecraft has measured Jupiter's low-order, even gravitational moments, --, to an unprecedented precision, providing important constraints on the density profil…
First-principles Equation of State and Shock Compression Predictions of Warm Dense Hydrocarbons
Shuai Zhang, Kevin P. Driver, François Soubiran +1
We use path integral Monte Carlo and density functional molecular dynamics to construct a coherent set of equation of state for a series of hydrocarbon materials with various C:H r…
First-Principles Simulations of Warm Dense Lithium Fluoride
K. P. Driver, B. Militzer
We perform first-principles path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) and density functional theory molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) calculations to explore warm dense matter states of LiF. Our…
Properties of hydrogen, helium, and silicon dioxide mixtures in giant planet interiors
François Soubiran, Burkhard Militzer, Kevin P. Driver +1
Recent observations of Jupiter and Saturn provided by spacecraft missions, such as Juno and Cassini, compel us to revise and improve our models of giant planet interiors. Even thou…
Equation of state and shock compression of warm dense sodium - a first-principles study
Shuai Zhang, Kevin Driver, François Soubiran +1
As one of the simple alkali metals, sodium has been of fundamental interest for shock physics experiments, but knowledge of its equation of state (EOS) in hot, dense regimes is not…
