Recent experiments on Pd$_{3}$Fe intermetallics [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 237202 (2009)] have revealed that the system behaves like a classical invar alloy under high pressure. The experimental pressure-volume relation suggests an anomalous…

Alkali metals display unexpected properties at high pressure, including emergence of low symmetry crystal structures, that appear to occur due to enhanced electronic correlations among the otherwise nearly-free conduction electrons. We…

Employing first principles parallel tempering molecular dynamics in the microcanonical ensemble, we report the presence of a clear solid-liquid-like melting transition in Al20+ clusters, not found in experiments. The phase transition…

The response of superconducting aluminum to electromagnetic radiation is investigated in a broad frequency (45 MHz to 40 GHz) and temperature range ($T>T_c/2$), by measuring the complex conductivity. While the imaginary part probes the…

It has been suggested that hydrogen may metallise at lower pressures if it is ``precompressed''. Here we introduce a search strategy for predicting high-pressure structures and apply it to silane using first-principles electronic structure…

Fullerene solids doped with alkali metals (A$_3$C$_{60}$, A = K, Rb, Cs) exhibit a superconducting transition temperature ($T_c$) as high as 40 K, and their unconventional superconducting properties have been a subject of debate. With…

Pressure induced interaction between core electrons, the core level crossing (CLC) transition has been observed in hcp Os at P~400 GPa [L. Dubrovinksy, et al., Nature 525, 226-229 (2015)]. In this work, we carry out a systematic study of…

Pressure-induced superconductivity and structural phase transitions in phosphorous (P) are studied by resistivity measurements under pressures up to 170 GPa and fully $ab-initio$ crystal structure and superconductivity calculations up to…

We present Gibbs free-energy phase diagrams for compressed iron within a pressure range of 20 to 300 GPa and electronic temperature up to 3 eV obtained using finite-temperature density functional and density functional perturbation…

Understanding the properties of molecular solids at high pressure is a key element in the development of new solid-state theories. However, the most commonly used generalized-gradient approximation (GGA) of the density functional theory…

The thermodynamic parameters of the superconducting state in Calcium under the pressure at 200 GPa have been determined. The numerical analysis by using the Eliashberg equations in the mixed representation has been conducted. It has been…

The precise location of the liquid-vapor critical point in aluminum has remained elusive for decades, with reported critical temperatures spanning nearly 4000 K. Here we resolve this long-standing uncertainty by combining deep potential…

First-principles calculations are performed for electronic structures of two high pressure phases of solid selenium, $\beta$-Po and bcc. Our calculation reproduces well the pressure-induced phase transition from $\beta$-Po to bcc observed…

At high pressure, the typical behavior of elements dictated by the periodic table - including oxidation numbers, stoichiometries in compounds, and reactivity, to name but a few - is altered dramatically. As pressure is applied, the…

Recent experimental results on two hcp phases of barium under high pressure show interesting variation of the lattice parameters. They are here interpreted in terms of electronic structure calculation by using the LMTO method and…

Lithium - the lightest alkali metal - exhibits unexpected structures and electronic behaviour at high pressures. As the heavier alkalis, Li is bcc at ambient pressure and transforms first to fcc (at 7.5 GPa). The post-fcc high-pressure form…

The only alkali metal known to be superconducting at ambient pressure is Li at 0.4 mK. Under 30 GPa pressure \textit{T}$_{c}$ for Li rises to 14 K. In addition, nearly 50 years ago the heavy alkali metal Cs was reported to become…

The structural analogue of iron-based superconductors the BaMn$_2$P$_2$ and BaMn$_2$As$_2$ compounds under hydrostatic pressure upto 140 GPa were studied within the framework of DFT+U. The transition from an antiferromagnetic (AFM)…

First-principles density-functional method is used to study the recently high-pressure synthesized compound PtC. It is confirmed by our calculations that the platinum carbide has a zinc-blende ground-state phase at zero pressure and the…

High pressure behavior of potassium chlorate (KClO$_3$) has been investigated from 0-10 GPa by means of first principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The calculated ground state parameters, transition pressure and phonon…
