vdW-DF Study of energetic, structural, and vibrational properties of small water clusters and ice Ih

Brian Kolb, T. Thonhauser

We present results for a density functional theory study of small water clusters and hexagonal ice Ih, using the van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF). In particular, we examin…

Ab initio energetics and kinetics study of H_2 and CH_4 in the SI Clathrate Hydrate

Qi Li, Brian Kolb, Guillermo Roman-Perez +5

We present ab initio results at the density functional theory level for the energetics and kinetics of H_2 and CH_4 in the SI clathrate hydrate. Our results complement a recent art…

Van der Waals interactions in the ground state of Mg(BH4)2 from density functional theory

A. Bil, B. Kolb, R. Atkinson +3

In order to resolve an outstanding discrepancy between experiment and theory regarding the ground-state structure of Mg(BH4)2, we examine the importance of long-range dispersive in…
