Quantum Monte Carlo calculation of Compton profiles of solid lithium
Recent high-resolution Compton scattering experiments in lithium have shown significant discrepancies with conventional band theoretical results. We present a pseudopotential quantum Monte Carlo study of electronelectron and electron-ion correlation effects on the momentum distribution of lithium. We compute the correlation correction to the valence Compton profiles obtained within Kohn-Sham de...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo Simulations of Solid
Recent experimental investigations [20] of solid He have been interpreted as showing possible superfluidity in the solid at low temperatures, below 0.2 K. A solid behaving this way, exhibiting both long range translational order and superfluidity, has been called a supersolid phase. The existence of a supersolid phase was proposed many years ago [1], and has been discussed theoretically. In thi...
متن کاملStudy of the Compton scattering effect of soft tissue in PET imaging by Monte Carlo method
Introduction:In PET imaging, one or both of two annihilation photons may change the direction before reaching the detector due to Compton scattering interaction in body. .Methods:This article, a Monte Carlo simulation study, examined the effect of soft tissue on this error.In this work, the PET BiographTM 6 scanner, a simple geometry of soft tissue -including a sphere of soft tissue in center ...
متن کاملMultiorbital Hubbard model in infinite dimensions: Quantum Monte Carlo calculation
Using the quantum Monte Carlo technique we compute thermodynamics and spectra for the orbitally degenerate Hubbard model in infinite spatial dimensions. With increasing orbital degeneracy we find in the one-particle spectra broader Hubbard bands ~consistent with increased kinetic energy!, a narrowing Mott gap, and increasing quasiparticle spectral weight. Hund’s rule exchange coupling decreases...
متن کاملQuantum Monte Carlo Calculation for the neutron-rich Ca isotopes
We computed ground-state energies of calcium isotopes from Ca to Ca by means of the Auxiliary Field Diffusion Monte Carlo (AFDMC) method. Calculations were performed by replacing the Ca core with a mean-field self consistent potential computed using Skyrme interaction. The energy of the external neutrons is calculated by projecting the ground-state from a wave function built with the single par...
