We assessed four exchange-correlation functionals (LDA CA-PZ, GGA parametrized by PBE, PBEsol, and WC) in predicting the lattice parameters of SrTi$_{1-\mathit{x}}$Mn$_{\mathit{x}}$O$_{3}$ perovskites, assuming cubic structures. Predictions…

The structure of aqueous CsCl solutions was investigated by classical molecular dynamics simulations (MD) at three salt concentrations (1.5, 7.5, and 15 mol %). Thirty interatomic potential sets, based on the 12-6 Lennard-Jones model,…

We revisit first-principles predictions of structural, ferroelectric, and electronic properties in aluminum-based III-V nitride alloys, focusing on Al1-xScxN and Al1-xBxN. Using density functional theory within a unified 48-atom supercell…

We present a method to accurately predict the Helmholtz harmonic free energies of molecular crystals in high-throughput settings. This is achieved by devising a computationally efficient framework that employs a Gaussian Process Regression…

We introduce an orbital free electron density functional approximation based on alchemical perturbation theory. Given convergent perturbations of a suitable reference system, the accuracy of popular self-consistent Kohn-Sham density…

A relativistic version of the coupled-cluster single-double (CCSD) method is developed for atoms with a single valence electron. In earlier work, a linearized version of the CCSD method (with extensions to include a dominant class of triple…

Designing complex concentrated alloys (CCA), also known as high entropy alloys (HEA), requires reliable and accessible thermodynamic predictions due to vast space of possible compositions. Numerous semiempirical parameters have been…

We study the phase behaviour of the Al$_x$CrFeCoNi high-entropy alloy. Our approach is based on a perturbative analysis of the internal energy of the paramagnetic solid solution as evaluated within the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker formulation of…

During the last years, the ALPHA collaboration has been developing and implementing a method based on Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) to compute B-mesons observables through lattice simulations. Thanks to a non-perturbative matching to…

It has been shown that to calculate the parameters of the electrostatic field of the ion crystal lattice it sufficient to take into account ions located at a distance of 1-2 lattice spacings. More distant ions make insignificant…
