We aim to improve upon the variational Monte Carlo (VMC) approach for excitations replacing the Jastrow factor by an auxiliary bosonic (AB) ground state and multiplying it by a fermionic component ...

Methane hydrates M ethane hydrate isn t a familiar term to most, but it is gaining popularity in the energy sector. In the realm of energy R&D, methane hydrates are being evaluated as a potential fuel ...

Computationally characterizing magnetic properties of novel two-dimensional (2D) materials serves as an important first step of exploring possible applications. Using density-functional theory, we ...

The properties of LaMO3 (M: 3d transition metal) perovskite crystals are significantly dependent on point defects, whether introduced accidentally or intentionally. The most studied defects in ...
