Ab initio Monte Carlo simulations have been performed to determine the equilibrium properties of liquid lithium and lithium clusters at different temperatures. First-principles density-functional methods were employed to calculate the…
We present a theory of local electric polarization in crystalline solids and apply it to study the case of wurtzite group-III nitrides. We show that a local value of the electric polarization, evaluated at the atomic sites, can be cast in…
Geometries and energies for H3+(H2)n clusters (n = 0, ..., 11) have been calculated using standard "ab initio" methods. Up to clusters with n = 6, four different Pople basis sets (DZ, TZ, TZP) have been used in the calculations. For larger…
We study swelling and structural properties of ionic microgel suspensions within a comprehensive coarse-grained model that combines the polymeric and colloidal natures of microgels as permeable, compressible, charged spheres governed by…
The ability of several density-functional theory (DFT) exchange-correlation functionals to describe hydrogen bonds in small water clusters (dimer to pentamer) in their global minimum energy structures is evaluated with reference to second…
Ab initio perturbed ion plus polarization calculations are reported for doubly-charged nonstoichiometric (MgO)nMg2+ (n=1-29) cluster ions. We consider a large number of isomers with full relaxations of the geometries, and add the…
Ab initio calculations using the Perturbed Ion model, with correlation contributions included, are presented for nonstoichiometric (NaI)_nNa+ and (CsI)_nCs+ (n=1-14) cluster ions. The ground state and several low-lying isomers are…
The structural, electronic and magnetic properties of Co$_n$ clusters ($n=2-$20) have been investigated using density functional theory within the pseudopotential plane wave method. An unusual hexagonal growth pattern has been observed in…
We present a general approach within the relativistic coupled-cluster theory framework to calculate exactly the first order wave functions due to any rank perturbation operators. Using this method, we calculate the static dipole and…
Polarimeric maps have been used on the characterization of the magnetic field in molecular clouds. However, it is difficult to determine the 3-dimensional properties of these regions from the projected maps. In that case, numerical…
In this paper we report a theoretical study of the static dipole polarizability of two one-dimensional structures: (a) linear carbon chains C$_{n} (n=2-10)$ and (b) ladder-like planar boron chains B$_{n} (n=4-14)$. The polarizabilities of…
The chemical and physical properties of molecular clusters can heavily depend on their size, which makes them very attractive for the design of new materials with tailored properties. Deriving the structure and dynamics of clusters is…
Using the Gaussian-03 for ab initio calculations, interactions of various acid molecules with a single water molecule were studied. The molecular and supermolecular optimized structures were found with the Becke-3-Lee-Yang-Parr…
Gaussian Process Regression-based Gaussian Approximation Potential has been used to develop machine-learned interatomic potentials having density-functional accuracy for free sodium clusters. The training data was generated from a large…
We consider a system of particles interacting via a purely repulsive, soft-core potential recently introduced to model effective pair interactions between dendrimers, which is expected to lead to the formation of crystals with multiple…
The static response properties and the structural stability of silver clusters in the size range $1\le n \le 23$ have been studied using a linear combination of atomic Gaussian-type orbitals within the density functional theory in the…
We have used density functional perturbation theory to investigate the stiffness of interatomic bonds in small clusters of Si, Sn and Pb. As the number of atoms in a cluster is decreased, there is a marked shortening and stiffening of…
Using first-principles density functional theory based calculations, we analyze the structural stability of small clusters of 3$d$ late transition metals. We consider the relative stability of the two structures - layer-like structure with…
Approximate molecular calculations via standard Kohn-Sham Density Functional Theory are exactly reproduced by performing self-consistent calculations on isolated fragments via Partition Density Functional Theory [Phys. Rev. A 82, 024501…
We report a new technique to determine the van der Waals coeffcients of lithium (Li) atoms based on the relativistic coupled-cluster theory. These quantities are determined using the imaginary parts of the scalar dipole and quadrupole…
