Wavefunction-based electrostatic-embedding QM/MM using CFOUR through MiMiC

Till Kirsch, Jógvan Magnus Haugaard Olsen, Viacheslav Bolnykh +5

We present an interface of the wavefunction-based quantum-chemical software CFOUR to the multiscale modeling framework MiMiC. Electrostatic embedding of the quantummechanical (QM)…

First branching fraction measurement of the suppressed decay

LHCb collaboration, R. Aaij, C. Abellán Beteta +963

The baryon is unstable and usually decays into charmless final states by the transition. It can, however, also disintegrate into a meson and a…

Hierarchical macro-nanoporous metals for leakage-free high-thermal conductivity shape-stabilized phase change materials

Yaroslav Grosu, Yanqi Zhao, Alberto Giacomello +6

Impregnation of Phase Change Materials (PCMs) into a porous medium is a promising way to stabilize their shape and improve thermal conductivity which are essential for thermal ener…

Activated wetting of nanostructured surfaces: reaction coordinates, finite size effects, and simulation pitfalls

Matteo Amabili, Simone Meloni, Alberto Giacomello +1

A liquid in contact with a textured surface can be found in two states, Wenzel and Cassie. In the Wenzel state the liquid completely wets the corrugations while in the Cassie state…

Collapse of superhydrophobicity on nanopillared surfaces

Matteo Amabili, Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni +1

The mechanism of the collapse of the superhydrophobic state is elucidated for submerged nanoscale textures forming a three-dimensional interconnected vapor domain. This key issue f…

Valence and conduction bands engineering in halide perovskites for solar cell applica- tions

Simone Meloni, Giulia Palermo, Negar Ashari Astani +3

We performed ab initio simulations aimed at identifying the atomistic and electronic structure origin of the high valence and conduction band, and band gap tunability of halide per…

Mechanism of the Cassie-Wenzel transition via the atomistic and continuum string methods

Alberto Giacomello, Simone Meloni, Marcus Mueller +1

The string method is a general and flexible strategy to compute the most probable transition path for an activated process (rare event). We apply here the atomistic string method i…

Relaxation of a steep density gradient in a simple fluid: comparison between atomistic and continuum modeling

Meisam Pourali, Simone Meloni, Francesco Magaletti +3

We compare dynamical nonequilibrium molecular dynamics and continuum simulations of the dynamics of relaxation of a fluid system characterized by a non uniform density profile. Res…

An observable for vacancy characterization and diffusion in crystals

Pierre-Antoine Geslin, Giovanni Ciccotti, Eric Vanden-Eijnden +1

To locate the position and characterize the dynamics of a vacancy in a crystal, we propose to represent it by the ground state density of a quantum probe quasi-particle for the Ham…

Combining rare events techniques: phase change in Si nanoparticles

Simone Meloni, Sergio Orlandini, Giovanni Ciccotti

We introduce a combined Restrained MD/Parallel Tempering approach to study the difference in free energy as a function of a set of collective variables between two states in presen…
