Ab initio path-integral Monte Carlo results for the one-particle spectral function of the warm dense electron gas

Paul Hamann, Michael Bonitz, Jan Vorberger +1

We compute quasi-exact \emph{ab initio} path-integral Monte Carlo results for the Matsubara Green's function of the uniform electron gas (UEG) at finite temperature over a broad ra…

Estimating ionization states and continuum lowering from ab initio path integral Monte Carlo simulations for warm dense hydrogen

Hannah M. Bellenbaum, Maximilian P. Böhme, Michael Bonitz +8

Warm dense matter (WDM) is an active field of research, with applications ranging from astrophysics to inertial confinement fusion. Ionization degree and continuum lowering are imp…

Ionization potential depression and Fermi barrier in warm dense matter--a first--principles approach

Michael Bonitz, Linda Kordts

Ionization potential depression (IPD) is of crucial importance to understand and accurately predict the properties of dense partially ionized plasmas. Many models of IPD have been…

Chemical potential of the warm dense electron gas from ab initio path integral Monte Carlo simulations

Tobias Dornheim, Michael Bonitz, Zhandos Moldabekov +3

We present extensive new \emph{ab initio} path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulation results for the chemical potential of the warm dense uniform electron gas (UEG), spanning a br…
