Electronic structure of Pu and Am metals by self consistent relativistic GW


Abstract in English

We present the results of calculations for Pu and Am performed using an implementation of self-consistent relativistic GW method. The key feature of our scheme is to evaluate polarizability and self-energy in real space and Matsubaras time. We compare our GW results with the calculations using local density (LDA) and quasiparticle (QP) approximations and also with scalar-relativistic calculations. By comparing our calculated electronic structures with experimental data, we highlight the importance of both relativistic effects and effects of self-consistency in this GW calculation.
