Neutron Star Crust and Molecular Dynamics Simulation
C. J. Horowitz, J. Hughto, A. Schneider +1
In this book chapter we review plasma crystals in the laboratory, in the interior of white dwarf stars, and in the crust of neutron stars. We describe a molecular dynamics formalis…
Direct MD simulation of liquid-solid phase equilibria for two-component plasmas
A. S. Schneider, J. Hughto, C. J. Horowitz +1
We determine the liquid-solid phase diagram for carbon-oxygen and oxygen-selenium plasma mixtures using two-phase MD simulations. We identified liquid, solid, and interface regions…
Diffusion in Coulomb Crystals
J. Hughto, A. S. Schneider, C. J. Horowitz +1
Diffusion in coulomb crystals can be important for the structure of neutron star crusts. We determine diffusion constants from molecular dynamics simulations. We find that …
