Atom-in-jellium calculations of the Einstein frequency in condensed matter and of the equation of state were used to predict the variation of shear modulus from zero pressure to ~$10^7$ g/cm$^3$, for several elements relevant to white dwarf (WD) stars and other self-gravitating systems. This is by far the widest range reported electronic structure calculation of shear modulus, spanning from ambient through the one-component plasma to extreme relativistic conditions. The predictions were based on a relationship between Debye temperature and shear modulus which we assess to be accurate at the o(10%) level, and is the first known use of atom-in-jellium theory to calculate a shear modulus. We assessed the overall accuracy of the method by comparing with experimental measurements and more detailed electronic structure calculations at lower pressures.

Although usually considered as a technique for predicting electron states in dense plasmas, atom-in-jellium calculations can be used to predict the mean displacement of the ion from its equilibrium position in colder matter, as a function of compress
ion and temperature. The Lindemann criterion of a critical displacement for melting can then be employed to predict the melt locus, normalizing for instance to the observed melt temperature or to more direct simulations such as molecular dynamics (MD). This approach reproduces the high pressure melting behavior of Al as calculated using the Lindemann model and thermal vibrations in the solid. Applied to Fe, we find that it reproduces the limited-range melt locus of a multiphase equation of state (EOS) and the results of ab initio MD simulations, and agrees less well with a Lindemann construction using an older EOS. The resulting melt locus lies significantly above the older melt locus for pressures above 1.5,TPa, but is closer to recent ab initio MD results and extrapolations of an analytic fit to them. This study confirms the importance of core freezing in massive exoplanets, predicting that a slightly smaller range of exoplanets than previously assessed would be likely to exhibit dynamo generation of magnetic fields by convection in the liquid portion of the core.
Recent path-integral Monte Carlo and quantum molecular dynamics simulations have shown that computationally efficient average-atom models can predict thermodynamic states in warm dense matter to within a few percent. One such atom-in-jellium model ha
s typically been used to predict the electron-thermal behavior only, although it was previously developed to predict the entire equation of state (EOS). We report completely atom-in-jellium EOS calculations for Be, Al, Si, Fe, and Mo, as elements representative of a range of atomic number and low-pressure electronic structure. Comparing the more recent method of pseudo-atom molecular dynamics, atom-in-jellium results were similar: sometimes less accurate, sometimes more. All these techniques exhibited pronounced effects of electronic shell structure in the shock Hugoniot which are not captured by Thomas-Fermi based EOS. These results demonstrate the value of a hierarchical approach to EOS construction, using average-atom techniques with shell structure to populate a wide-range EOS surface efficiently, complemented by more rigorous 3D multi-atom calculations to validate and adjust the EOS.
Equations of state (EOS) calculated from a computationally efficient atom-in-jellium treatment of the electronic structure have recently been shown to be consistent with more rigorous path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) and quantum molecular dynamics (Q
MD) simulations of metals in the warm dense matter regime. Here we apply the atom-in-jellium model to predict wide-ranging EOS for the cryogenic liquid elements nitrogen, oxygen, and fluorine. The principal Hugoniots for these substances were surprisingly consistent with available shock data and Thomas-Fermi (TF) EOS for very high pressures, and exhibited systematic variations from TF associated with shell ionization effects, in good agreement with PIMC, though deviating from QMD and experiment in the molecular regime. The new EOS are accurate much higher in pressure than previous widely-used models for nitrogen and oxygen in particular, and should allow much more accurate predictions for oxides and nitrides in the liquid, vapor, and plasma regime, where these have previously been constructed as mixtures containing the older EOS.
Most water in the universe may be superionic, and its thermodynamic and transport properties are crucial for planetary science but difficult to probe experimentally or theoretically. We use machine learning and free energy methods to overcome the lim
itations of quantum mechanical simulations, and characterize hydrogen diffusion, superionic transitions, and phase behaviors of water at extreme conditions. We predict that a close-packed superionic phase with mixed stacking is stable over a wide temperature and pressure range, while a body-centered cubic phase is only thermodynamically stable in a small window but is kinetically favored. Our phase boundaries, which are consistent with the existing-albeit scarce-experimental observations, help resolve the fractions of insulating ice, different superionic phases, and liquid water inside of ice giants.
A type of line defect (LD) composed of alternate squares and octagons (4-8) as the basic unit is currently an experimentally available topological defect in graphene lattice, which brings some interesting modification to magnetic and electronic prope
rties of graphene. The transitional metal (TM) adsorb on graphene with line-defect (4-8), and they show interesting and attractive structural, magnetic and electronic properties. For different TMs such as Fe, Co, Mn, Ni and V, the complex systems show different magnetic and electronic properties. The TM atoms can spontaneously adsorb at quadrangular sites, forming an atomic chain along LD on graphene. The most stable configuration is hollow site of regular tangle. The TMs (TM = Co, Fe, Mn, Ni, V) tend to form extended metal lines, showing ferromagnetic (FM) ground state. For Co, Fe, and V atom, the system are half-metal. The spin-{alpha} electron is insulating, while spin-b{eta} electron is conductive. For Mn and Ni atom, Mn-LD and Ni-LD present spin-polarized metal; For Fe atom, the Fe-LD shows semimetal with Dirac cones. For Fe and V atom, both Fe-LD and V-LD show spin-polarized half-metallic properties. And its spin-{alpha} electron is conducting, while spin-b{eta} electron is insulating. Different TMs adsorbing on graphene nanoribbon forming same stable configurations of metal lines, show different electronic properties. The adsorption of TMs introduces magnetism and spin-polarization. These metal lines have potential application in spintronic devices, and work as quasi-one-dimensional metallic wire, which may form building blocks for atomic-scale electrons with well-controlled contacts at atomic level.
