A Quadratic Diffusion Monte Carlo method has been used to obtain the equation of state of liquid $^4$He including the negative pressure region down to the spinodal point. The atomic interaction used is a renewed version (HFD-B(HE)) of the…
We study thermal properties of a trapped Bose-Bose mixture in a dilute regime using quantum Monte Carlo methods. Our main aim is to investigate the dependence of the superfluid density and the condensate fraction on temperature, for the…
We show that, at high densities, fully variational solutions of solid-like type can be obtained from a density functional formalism originally designed for liquid 4He. Motivated by this finding, we propose an extension of the method that…
The ground-state properties of spin polarized hydrogen H$\downarrow$ are obtained by means of diffusion Monte Carlo calculations. Using the most accurate to date ab initio H$\downarrow$-H$\downarrow$ interatomic potential we have studied…
We present a novel density functional for liquid 4He, properly accounting for the static response function and the phonon-roton dispersion in the uniform liquid. The functional is used to study both structural and dynamical properties of…
The structure of small mixed helium clusters doped with one calcium atom has been determined within the diffusion Monte Carlo framework. The results show that the calcium atom sits at the $^4$He-$^3$He interface. This is in agreement with…
The elastic constants of solid \textit{hcp} $^4$He are investigated in molar volumes ranging from about melting up to approximately 14 MPa. Properties of interest are determined by averages formed from computed values in configurations…
The structural and dynamical properties of OCS molecules solvated in Helium clusters are studied using reptation quantum Monte Carlo, for cluster sizes n=3-20 He atoms. Computer simulations allow us to establish a relation between the…
The local order around alkali (Li$^+$ and Na$^+$) and alkaline-eath (Be$^+$, Mg$^+$ and Ca$^+$) ions in $^4$He clusters has been studied using ground-state path integral Monte Carlo calculations. We apply a criterion based on multipole…
The conventional theory of homogeneous and heterogeneous nucleation in a supersaturated vapor is tested by Monte Carlo simulations of the lattice gas (Ising) model with nearest-neighbor attractive interactions on the simple cubic lattice.…
The possible superfluid transition of supercooled liquid parahydrogen is investigated by quantum Monte Carlo simulations. The cooling protocol adopted here allows for the investigation of a fluid phase down to a temperature T=0.25 K. No…
A frozen, solid helium core, dubbed snowball, is typically observed around cations in liquid helium. Here we discover, using path integral simulations, that around a cationic molecular impurity, protonated methane, the $^4$He atoms are…
We investigate mixed (50/50) clusters of parahydrogen and orthodeuterium at low temperature, by means of Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. Our results provide evidence of liquid-like behavior and partial isotopic separation in a cluster of…
At low temperatures and 3He concentrations below 6.6 %, there is experimental evidence about the existence in liquid helium mixtures, of stable vortices with 3He-rich cores. When the system is either supersaturated or submitted to a tensile…
The thermodynamics of solid (hcp) He-4 is studied theoretically by means of unbiased Monte Carlo simulations at finite temperature, in a wide range of density. This study complements and extends previous theoretical work, mainly by…
High resolution spectroscopy of doped molecules in 4He nano-droplets and clusters gives a signature of superfluidity in microscopic system, termed as microscopic superfluidity. Ro-vibrational spectrum of 4HeN-M clusters is studied with the…
Using quantum Monte Carlo we have studied the superfluid density of the first layer of $^4$He and H$_2$ adsorbed on graphene and graphite. Our main focus has been on the equilibrium ground state of the system, which corresponds to a…
The possibility that disorder may stabilize a superfluid phase of para-hydrogen in two dimensions is investigated theoretically by means of Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We model disorder using a random distribution of scatterers, and…
Diffusion Monte Carlo results for the phonon-roton excitation branch in bulk liquid $^4$He at zero temperature are presented. The sign problem associated to the excited wave function has been dealt both with the fixed-node approximation and…
Quantum Monte Carlo simulations are used to investigate the two-dimensional superfluid properties of the hard-core boson model, which show a strong dependence on particle density and disorder. We obtain further evidence that a half-filled…
