How we measure 'reads'
A 'read' is counted each time someone views a publication summary (such as the title, abstract, and list of authors), clicks on a figure, or views or downloads the full-text. Learn more

The quasi-harmonic approximation (QHA) is a powerful method that uses the volume dependence of non-interacting phonons to compute the free energy of materials at high pressures (P) and temperatures (T). However, anharmonicity, electronic excitations in metals, or both, introduce an intrinsic T-dependence on phonon frequencies, rendering the QHA ina...
The primary phase of the Earth’s lower mantle, (Al, Fe)‐bearing bridgmanite, transitions to the post‐perovskite (PPv) phase at Earth’s deep mantle conditions. Despite extensive experimental and ab initio investigations, there are still important aspects of this transformation that need clarification. Here, we address this transition in (Al³⁺, Fe³⁺)...
In this work, we introduce an open-source Julia project, express, an extensible, lightweight, high-throughput, high-level workflow framework that aims to automate ab initio calculations for the materials science community. express is shipped with well-tested workflow templates, including structure optimization, equation of state (EOS) fitting, phon...

We present LDA + U sc calculations of high-spin (HS) and low-spin (LS) states in ferropericlase (fp) with an iron concentration of 18.75%. The Hubbard parameter U is determined self-consistently with structures optimized at arbitrary pressures. We confirm a strong dependence of U on the pressure and spin state. Static calculations confirm that the...
We present LDA+$U_{sc}$ calculations of high-spin (HS) and low-spin (LS) states in ferropericlase (fp) with an iron concentration of 18.75$\%$. The Hubbard parameter $U$ is determined self-consistently with structures optimized at arbitrary pressures. We confirm a strong dependence of $U$ on the pressure and spin state. Static calculations confirm...
In this work, we introduce an open-source $\texttt{Julia}$ project, $\texttt{express}$, an extensible, high-throughput, high-level workflow framework that aims to automate $\textit{ab initio}$ calculations for the materials science community. $\texttt{Express}$ is shipped with well-tested workflow templates, including structure optimization, equati...
The thermodynamic properties of hexagonal-close-packed iron (ε−Fe) are essential for investigating the internal structure and dynamic properties of planetary cores. Despite their importance to planetary sciences, experimental investigations of ε−Fe at relevant conditions are still challenging. Therefore, ab initio calculations are crucial to elucid...
The thermodynamic properties of hcp-iron ({\epsilon}-Fe) are essential for investigating planetary cores' internal structure and dynamic properties. Despite their importance to planetary sciences, experimental investigations of {\epsilon}-Fe at relevant conditions are still challenging. Therefore, ab initio calculations can contribute to elucidatin...
