Kinetic energy from the cubic sum rule of the dynamic structure factor

Fotios Kalkavouras, Panagiotis Tolias, Sebastian Schwalbe +6

The third frequency moment sum rule of the dynamic structure factor is explored for the first time as an alternative estimator of the kinetic energy of quant…

X-Ray Diagnostics Analysis Verification and Exploration (xDAVE) Code for the Prediction and Interpretation of X-Ray Thomson Scattering Experiments

Hannah M. Bellenbaum, Dave A. Chapman, Maximilian P. Böhme +8

X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) is a common diagnostic used in the warm dense matter (WDM) regime to estimate plasma parameters like density, temperature and charge state. Experime…

Reweighting Estimators for Density Response in Path Integral Monte Carlo: Applications to linear, nonlinear and cross-species density response

Pontus Svensson, Thomas Chuna, Jan Vorberger +5

We present density response estimators for Monte Carlo simulations that are based on a reweighting procedure, where the samples of an unperturbed system are used to estimate the pr…

Spectral Deconvolution without the Deconvolution: Extracting Temperature from X-ray Thomson Scattering Spectra without the Source-and-Instrument Function

Thomas Gawne, Alina Kononov, Andrew Baczewski +7

X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) probes the dynamic structure factor of the system, but the measured spectrum is broadened by the combined source-and-instrument function (SIF) of th…

Enhancing the Efficiency of Time-Dependent Density Functional Theory Calculations of Dynamic Response Properties

Zhandos A. Moldabekov, Sebastian Schwalbe, Uwe Hernandez Acosta +4

X-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) constitutes an essential technique for diagnosing material properties under extreme conditions, such as high pressures and intense laser heating. Ti…

Generalized density functional theory framework for the non-linear density response of quantum many-body systems

Zhandos A. Moldabekov, Cheng Ma, Xuecheng Shao +5

A density functional theory (DFT) framework is presented that links functional derivatives of free-energy functionals to non-linear static density response functions in quantum man…
