The accurate description of non-ideal quantum many-body systems is of prime importance for a host of applications within physics, quantum chemistry, material science, and related disciplines. At finite temperatures, the gold standard is…
Warm dense matter is one of the most active frontiers in plasma physics due to its relevance for dense astrophysical objects as well as for novel laboratory experiments in which matter is being strongly compressed e.g. by high-power lasers.…
Being motivated by the surge of fermionic quantum Monte Carlo simulations at finite temperature, we present a detailed analysis of the permutation-cycle properties of path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations of degenerate electrons.…
In a recent Letter [T.~Dornheim \emph{et al.}, Phys.~Rev.~Lett.~\textbf{125}, 085001 (2020)], we have presented the first \emph{ab initio} results for the nonlinear density response of electrons in the warm dense matter regime. In the…
The quasiparticle effective mass $m^*$ of the three-dimensional uniform electron gas (UEG) is a fundamental Fermi-liquid parameter whose value and density dependence have remained controversial for decades. Using renormalized perturbation…
There is growing interest in warm dense matter (WDM) -- an exotic state on the border between condensed matter and plasmas. Due to the simultaneous importance of quantum and correlation effects WDM is complicated to treat theoretically. A…
The study of matter at extreme densities and temperatures as they occur in astrophysical objects and state-of-the art experiments with high-intensity lasers is of high current interest for many applications. While no overarching theory for…
The uniform electron gas or UEG (also known as jellium) is one of the most fundamental models in condensed-matter physics and the cornerstone of the most popular approximation --- the local-density approximation --- within…
The strongly coupled electron liquid provides a unique opportunity to study the complex interplay of strong coupling with quantum degeneracy effects and thermal excitations. To this end, we carry out extensive \textit{ab initio} path…
Path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations are used to calculate the momentum distribution of the homogeneous electron gas at finite temperature. This is done by calculating the off-diagonal elements of the real-space density matrix,…
We present novel first-principle fermionic path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulation results for a dense partially ionized hydrogen (deuterium) plasma, for temperatures in the range $15,000$K $\leq T \leq 400,000$K and densities $7 \cdot…
A simple expression for the uniform electron gas (UEG) correlation energy, recently presented in Ref. [J. Chem. Phys. 145, 021101 (2016)], deviates from the reference quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) data at large r_s. We propose to define one of…
We perform \emph{ab initio} quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulations of the warm dense uniform electron gas in the thermodynamic limit. By combining QMC data with linear response theory we are able to remove finite-size errors from the…
Precise knowledge of the static density response function (SDRF) of the uniform electron gas (UEG) serves as key input for numerous applications, most importantly for density functional theory beyond generalized gradient approximations.…
The uniform electron gas is a key model system in the description of matter, including dense plasmas and solid state systems. However, the simultaneous occurence of quantum, correlation, and thermal effects makes the theoretical description…
We perform all-electron path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) and density functional theory molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) calculations to explore warm dense matter states of oxygen. Our simulations cover a wide density-temperature range of…
Warm dense matter (WDM) is an exotic state on the border between condensed matter and dense plasmas. Important occurrences of WDM include dense astrophysical objects, matter in the core of our Earth, as well as matter produced in strong…
We introduce a new paradigm for one-dimensional uniform electron gases (UEGs). In this model, $n$ electrons are confined to a ring and interact via a bare Coulomb operator. We use Rayleigh-Schr\"odinger perturbation theory to show that, in…
In a recent Letter [T.~Dornheim \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{117}, 156403 (2016)], we presented the first \textit{ab initio} quantum Monte-Carlo (QMC) results of the warm dense electron gas in the thermodynamic limit. However,…
We present quasi-exact ab initio path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) results for the partial static density responses and local field factors of hydrogen in the warm dense matter regime, from solid density conditions to the strongly compressed…
