Ab initio molecular dynamic method within the framework of density functional theory is applied to analyze the structural and electronic properties of crystalline molecular hydrogen at temperature 100\,K. Pressure, pair correlation function…
Halogen bonding has emerged as an important noncovalent interaction in a myriad of applications, including drug design, supramolecular assembly, and catalysis. Current understanding of the halogen bond is informed by electronic structure…
We analyze the pressure-induced metal-insulator transition in a two-dimensional vertical stack of $H_2$ molecules in x-y plane, and show that it represents a striking example of the Mott-Hubbard-type transition. Our combined exact…
A possible formation mechanism of hydrogen molecules on a galactic scale is examined. We are interested especially in the role of hydrogen molecules for formation and evolution of primordial galaxies. Then, formation process of hydrogen…
We present the first three-dimensional radiation-magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the photoionisation of a dense, magnetised molecular globule by an external source of ultraviolet radiation. We find that, for the case of a strong ionising…
In the last decade, there has been great progress in predicting and synthesizing polyhydrides that exhibit superconductivity when squeezed. Dopants allow these compounds to become metals at pressures lower than those required to metallize…
Quantum effects in condensed matter normally only occur at low temperatures. Here we show a large quantum effect in high-pressure liquid hydrogen at thousands of Kelvins. We show that the metallization transition in hydrogen is subject to a…
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…
Metal hydrogen exhibiting electron delocalization properties has been recognized as an important prospect for achieving controlled nuclear fusion, but the extreme pressure conditions required exceeding hundreds of GPa remain a daunting…
Evolutionary structure searches predict three new phases of iodine polyhydrides stable under pressure. Insulating P1-H5I, consisting of zigzag chains of HI (delta+)and H2(delta-) molecules, is stable between 30-90 GPa. Cmcm-H2I and…
We present a 2D lattice model of water to study the effects of ion hydration on the properties of water. We map the water molecules as lattice particles consisting of a single Oxygen at the center of a site and two Hydrogen atoms on each…
Behaviours of hydrogen, such as fluidity and metallicity, are crucial for our understanding of planetary interiors and the emerging field of high-temperature superconducting hydrides. These behaviours were discovered in complex phase…
Optical properties of compressed fluid hydrogen in the region where dissociation and metallization is observed are computed by ab-initio methods and compared to recent experimental results. We confirm that above 3000 K both processes are…
The question is raised about the pressure effects on the polarizability and dispersive binding in ionic and molecular systems. As an example we take the effect of hydrostatic pressure on the energy gap of phonon-coupled two-level systems.…
The goal of this work is to report a systematic and balanced review of the progress made in recent years on the high-pressure behavior of iodates, a group of materials with multiple technological applications and peculiar behaviors under…
Being the simplest element with just one electron and proton the electronic structure of the Hydrogen atom is known exactly. However, this does not hold for the complex interplay between them in a solid and in particular not at high…
The insulator-metal transition in hydrogen is one of the most outstanding problems in condensed matter physics. The high-pressure metallic phase is now predicted to be liquid atomic from T=0 K to very high temperatures. We have conducted…
According to the theoretical predictions, insulating molecular hydrogen dissociates and transforms to an atomic metal at pressures P~370-500 GPa. In another scenario, the metallization first occurs in the 250-500 GPa pressure range in…
Superconductivity in the recently proposed ground-state structures of atomic metallic hydrogen is investigated over the pressure range 500 GPa to 3.5 TPa. Near molecular dissociation, the electron--phonon coupling $\lambda$ and renormalized…
Iodine (I$_2$) molecules embedded in He nanodroplets are aligned by a 160 ps long laser pulse. The highest degree of alignment, occurring at the peak of the pulse and quantified by $\langle \cos^2 \theta_{2D} \rangle$, is measured as a…
