Light Cones in Classical Dipole-Dipole Interacting Systems
Josep Batle, Joan J. Cerdà, Ph. Depondt +1
The speed at which the magnetic interaction propagates along a chain of classic dipoles is discussed here. While in the quantum information counterpart for long-range interacting s…

Quantum driven proton diffusion in brucite-like minerals under high pressure
Sofiane Schaack, Philippe Depondt, Simon Huppert +1
We investigate the elementary steps at the microscopic level for proton diffusion in brucite under high pressure, which results from a complex interplay between two processes: the…

Thermal and nuclear quantum effects in the hydrogen bond dynamical symmetrization phase transition of delta-AlOOH
Yael Bronstein, Philippe Depondt, Fabio Finocchi
We conducted ab initio molecular dynamics simulations of the delta phase of the hydrous mineral AlOOH at ambient temperature and high pressure. Nuclear quantum effects were include…
