Gas hydrates are considered fundamental building blocks of giant icy planets like Neptune and similar exoplanets. The existence of these materials in the interiors of giant icy planets, which are subject to high pressures and temperatures,…

Water exhibits rich polymorphism, where more than 20 crystalline phases have been experimentally reported. Five of them are metastable and form at low temperatures by either heating amorphous ice or degassing clathrate hydrates. However,…

Solid hydrogen sulfide is well known as a typical molecular crystal but its stability under pressure is still under debate. Particularly, Eremets et al. found the high pressure superconductivity with $T_{c}\approx$ 190 K in a H$_{2}$S…

Gas hydrates are systems of prime importance. In particular, hydrogen hydrates are potential materials of icy satellites and comets, and may be used for hydrogen storage. We explore the H2O-H2 system at pressures in the range 0-100 GPa with…

The molecular phase of hydrogen converts to the atomic metallic phase at high pressures estimated usually as 300 - 500 GPa. We analyze the decay of metallic phase as the pressure is relieved below the transition one. The metallic state is…

Water and hydrogen at high pressure make up a substantial fraction of the interiors of giant planets. Using ab initio random structure search methods we investigate the ground-state crystal structures of water, hydrogen, and hydrogen-oxygen…

Based on density functional calculations we predict water ice to attain two new crystal structures with Pbca and Cmcm symmetry at 7.6 and 15.5 Mbar, respectively. The known high pressure ice phases VII, VIII, X, and Pbcm as well as the Pbca…

We propose three new phases of H2O under ultrahigh pressure. Our structural search was performed using an adaptive genetic algorithm which allows an extensive exploration of crystal structure. The new sequence of pressure-induced…

\textit{Ab initio} random structure searching based on density functional theory is used to determine the ground-state structures of ice at high pressures. Including estimates of lattice zero-point energies, ice is found to adopt three…

The properties of some forms of water ice reserve still intriguing surprises. Besides the several stable or metastable phases of pure ice, solid mixtures of water with gases are precursors of other ices, since in some cases they may be…

We map the high-pressure phase diagram of nitrogen hydrate up to 16 GPa at room temperature by combining neutron diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and crystal structure prediction. We reveal a rich sequence of structural transformations,…

The Fe-Si-O ternary system, central to modeling the interiors of terrestrial planets, remains poorly constrained at Terapascal (TPa) pressures characteristic of super-Earth mantles. Using a combination of crystal-structure prediction and ab…

We report results of molecular dynamics simulations of amorphous ice for pressures up to 22.5 kbar. The high-density amorphous ice (HDA) as prepared by pressure-induced amorphization of Ih ice at T=80 K is annealed to T=170 K at various…

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a prototype molecular system and a sister molecule of water. The phase diagram of solid H2S at high pressures remains largely unexplored arising from the challenges in dealing with the looser S-H bond and larger…

The phase diagram and equation of state of dense nitrogen are of interest in understanding the fundamental physics and chemistry under extreme conditions, including planetary processes, and in discovering new materials. We predict several…

We have used density-functional-theory methods and the ab initio random structure searching (AIRSS) approach to predict stable structures and stoichiometries of mixtures of iron and oxygen at high pressures. Searching was performed for 12…

By employing first-principles metadynamics simulations, we explore the 300 K structures of solid hydrogen over the pressure range 150-300 GPa. At 200 GPa, we find the ambient-pressure disordered hexagonal close-packed (hcp) phase transited…

Ab initio random structure searching with density functional theory was used to determine the zero-temperature structures of atomic metallic hydrogen from 500 GPa to 5 TPa. Including zero point motion in the harmonic approximation, we…

The high pressure structural and electronic evolution of bulk MoS$_2$, an important transition metal layered dichalchogenide, is currently under active investigation. Recent theoretical and experimental work predicted and verified a 2H$_c…

The primary purpose of this paper is to stimulate theoretical predictions of how to retain metastably hydrogenous materials made at high pressure P on release to ambient. Ultracondensed metallic hydrogen has been made at 140 GPa at finite…
