Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the Universe. They are also, in principle, the most simple. Nonetheless, they display remarkable properties under extreme …
Producing metallic hydrogen has been a great challenge in condensed matter physics. Metallic hydrogen may be a room-temperature superconductor and metastable when the …

We present an overview of the variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo methods as implemented in the casino program. We particularly focus on developments made in the last …
As the name implies, Monte Carlo (MC) methods employ random numbers to solve problems. The range of problems that may be treated by MC is substantial; these include …

Molecular hydrogen is expected to exhibit metallic properties under megabar pressures. This metal is predicted to be superconducting with a very high critical temperature, T c, of …
Using quantum simulation techniques based on either density functional theory or quantum Monte Carlo, we find clear evidence of a first-order transition in liquid hydrogen, between a …
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) is a powerful method to calculate accurate energies and forces for molecular systems. In this work, we demonstrate how we can obtain accurate QMC …
Simulations of materials behavior are an important component of materials science research, partly because measurements are indirect, requiring theoretical interpretation, and …
