We present a 5-phase equation of state (EOS) for elemental carbon. The phases considered are: diamond, BC8, simple-cubic, simple-hexagonal, and the liquid/plasma state. The solid phase free energies are constrained by density functional…

We explore the recently introduced $\eta$-ensemble approach to compute the free energy directly from \emph{ab initio} path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations [T.~Dornheim \emph{et al.}, arXiv:2407.01044] and apply it to the archetypal…
