First-Principles Calculation of the Third Virial Coefficient of Helium
Knowledge of the pair and three-body potential-energy surfaces of helium is now sufficient to allow calculation of the third density virial coefficient, C(T), with significantly smaller uncertainty than that of existing experimental data. In this work, we employ the best available pair and three-body potentials for helium and calculate C(T) with path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) calculations sup...
متن کاملImproved First-Principles Calculation of the Third Virial Coefficient of Helium
We employ state-of-the-art pair and three-body potentials with path-integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) methods to calculate the third density virial coefficient C(T) for helium. The uncertainties are much smaller than those of the best experimental results, and approximately one-fourth the uncertainty of our previous work. We have extended our results in temperature down to 2.6 K, incorporating the ef...
متن کاملPath-integral calculation of the third virial coefficient of quantum gases at low temperatures.
We derive path-integral expressions for the second and third virial coefficients of monatomic quantum gases. Unlike previous work that considered only Boltzmann statistics, we include exchange effects (Bose-Einstein or Fermi-Dirac statistics). We use state-of-the-art pair and three-body potentials to calculate the third virial coefficient of (3)He and (4)He in the temperature range 2.6-24.5561 ...
متن کاملFirst principles calculation of the interdiffusion coefficient in binary alloys.
The atomic mechanisms of diffusion in alloys are complex due to the variations of migration energies with environment and the correlations induced by short-range order between the different components. We present a first-principles approach for calculating vacancy-mediated diffusion coefficients in crystalline binary alloys and apply it to obtain the interdiffusion coefficient of Al(1-x)Lix. Th...
متن کاملAb initio interaction potential of methane and carbon dioxide: Calculation of second-virial coefficient
An interaction potential at different orientation for the CH4 and CO2 complex was derived at theB3LYP level of theory and 6-31+G* basis sets. The potential energy surface was computed on somemolecular geometries. The complete basis set limit of the interaction energies were fitted to wellknownanalytical functions. To determine the second virial coefficients B, U(r) is used to obtain themodel’s ...
