Melting curve of magnesium up to 460 GPa from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations

Chengfeng Cui, Jiawei Xian, Haifeng Liu +3

Based on ab initio molecular dynamics simulations, we determined the melting curve of magnesium (Mg) up to ~460 GPa using the solid-liquid coexistence method. Between ~30 and 100 G…
