Free energy, internal energy, and specific heat for each of the three phonon spectrum branches of a magnetized Coulomb crystal with body-centered cubic lattice are calculated by numerical integration over the Brillouin zone in the range of…
Analytic expressions for the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a one-dimensional harmonic crystal are obtained. The average energy and density profiles are obtained numerically as a function of temperature. A surprisingly large…
Using path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) simulations, we have calculated energy of a crystal composed of atomic nuclei and uniform incompressible electron background in the temperature and density range, covering fully ionized layers of…
We consider two high-frequency thermal processes in uniformly heated harmonic crystals relaxing towards equilibrium: (i) equilibration of kinetic and potential energies and (ii) redistribution of energy among spatial directions. Equation…
The dynamic structure factor ${\tilde S}({\bf k},\omega)$ and the two-particle distribution function $g({\bf r},t)$ of ions in a Coulomb crystal are obtained in a closed analytic form using the harmonic lattice (HL) approximation which…
The free energy and other thermodynamic properties of hexagonal-close-packed iron are calculated by direct {\em ab initio} methods over a wide range of pressures and temperatures relevant to the Earth's core. The {\em ab initio}…
Zone-center phonon frequencies of polar lattices are calculated for uniaxial crystals from the symmetry arguments. Long-range Coulomb forces and crystal anisotropy are explicitly taken into account. Free-carrier contributions into a…
We propose an approach to calculate the anharmonic part of the volumetric-strain and temperature dependent free energy of a crystal. The method strikes an effective balance between accuracy and computational efficiency, showing a $\times10$…
Obtaining the free energy of large molecules from quantum mechanical energy functions is a longstanding challenge. We describe a method that allows us to estimate, at the quantum mechanical level, the harmonic contributions to the…
Starting from the Helmholtz free energy we calculate analytically first- and second-order derivatives, as internal energy and specific heats, for the ideal system and the exchange and correlation interactions covering a broad range of…
The thermodynamic free energy F is calculated for a gas whose particles are the quantum excitations of a piecewise uniform bosonic string. The string consists of two parts of length L_I and L_II, endowed with different tensions and mass…
The behavior of various thermodynamic functions in the dependence of degree of energy band occupation and temperature in the one-band tight binding approximation for the crystal was studied. The Fermi energy, density of states, degeneracy…
Within the framework of the local-equilibrium approach, the equilibrium and nonequilibrium properties relevant to the hydrodynamics of the perfect hard-sphere crystal are obtained with molecular dynamics simulations using the Helfand…
We describe a method to compute thermodynamic quantities in the harmonic approximation for identical bosons and fermions in an external confining field. We use the canonical partition function where only energies and their degeneracies…
It is well known that conventional harmonic lattice dynamics cannot be applied to energetically unstable crystals at 0 K, such as high temperature body centered cubic (BCC) phase of crystalline Zr. Predicting phonon spectra at finite…
Vibrational dynamics governs the fundamental properties of molecular crystals, shaping their thermodynamics, mechanics, spectroscopy, and transport phenomena. However desirable, the first-principles calculation of solid-state vibrations,…
Lattice dynamical methods used to predict phase transformations in crystals typically deal with harmonic phonon spectra and are therefore not applicable in important situations where one of the competing crystal structures is unstable in…
We investigate crystalline thermodynamic stable lithium silicides phases (LixSiy) with density functional theory (DFT) and a force-field method based on modified embedded atoms (MEAM) and compare our results with experimental data. This…
The dynamical structure factor of a Coulomb crystal of ions is calculated at arbitrary temperature below the melting point taking into account multi-phonon processes in the harmonic approximation. In a strongly coupled Coulomb ion liquid,…
Within the framework of density functional theory (DFT), the total energy of crystal structures is calculated at zero temperature. Herein, we briefly discuss the DFT-based lattice-dynamics approach for computing crystal free energy, the…
