Broad Histogram Algorithm Comparison for the Square Well Fluid

Creator:

Simpson, Tanner T.

Abstract:

Thermodynamic properties of systems are often investigated computationally. Traditionally, thermal physics simulations are limited by their very small energy ranges and slow convergence. Broad histogram algorithms are a class of Monte Carlo algorithms that can explore an entire energy (and temperature) range in one thermal physics simulation: potentially saving months...

Computing Wavefunctions of Silicon Donor Qubits with Density Functional Theory

Creator:

Almulla, Yousif Waleed

Abstract:

Silicon based quantum computing is an attractive approach to large-scale quantum computation due to the significant success of the modern semiconductor fabrication industry. Despite many advances in silicon quantum computing since its inception in 1998, there remains no software for efficiently designing candidate silicon quantum computing devices. Such a development...

The contact value approximation to the pair distribution function for an inhomogeneous hard sphere fluid

Creator:

Lurie-Gregg, Paho

Abstract:

We construct the contact value approximation (CVA) for the pair distribution function, g(²)(r₁, r₂), for an inhomogeneous hard sphere fluid. The CVA is an average of two radial distribution functions, which each take as input the distance between the particles, |r₂ −r₁|, and the average value of the radial distribution...
