Toward an accurate equation of state and B1-B2 phase boundary for magnesium oxide to TPa pressures and eV temperatures

Shuai Zhang, Reetam Paul, S. X. Hu +1

By applying auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo, we calculate the equation of state (EOS) and B1-B2 phase transition of magnesium oxide (MgO) up to 1 TPa. The results agree with av…

Accelerating Auxiliary-Field Quantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Solids with Graphical Processing Unit

Fionn D. Malone, Shuai Zhang, Miguel A. Morales

We outline how auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) can leverage graphical processing units (GPUs) to accelerate the simulation of solid state sytems. By exploiting conserva…
