Microscopic origins of the anomalous melting behaviour of high-pressure sodium
Hagai Eshet, Rustam Z. Khaliullin, Thomas D. Kühne +2
Recent experiments have shown that sodium, a prototype simple metal at ambient conditions, exhibits unexpected complexity under high pressure. One of the most puzzling phenomena in…
Absence of Metallization in Solid Molecular Hydrogen
Sam Azadi, Thomas D. Kühne
Being the simplest element with just one electron and proton the electronic structure of the Hydrogen atom is known exactly. However, this does not hold for the complex interplay b…
Nucleation mechanism for the direct graphite-to-diamond phase transition
Rustam Z. Khaliullin, Hagai Eshet, Thomas D. Kuhne +2
Graphite and diamond have comparable free energies, yet forming diamond from graphite is far from easy. In the absence of a catalyst, pressures that are significantly higher than t…
