Ions in crystals: the topology of the electron density in ionic materials. IV. The danburite (CaB2Si2O8) case and the occurrence of oxide-oxide bond paths in crystals. [PDF]
We have obtained the electron density of danburite by means of ab initio Perturbed Ion (aiPI) quantum mechanical calculations and fully characterized its topological features, as required for the analysis of crystal bonding in the light of Bader’s atoms ...

Optical nonlinearities of small polarons in lithium niobate [PDF]
An overview of optical nonlinearities of small bound polarons is given, which can occur in the congruently melting composition of LiNbO3. Such polarons decisively influence the linear and nonlinear optical performance of this material that is important ...

All-electron quantum Monte Carlo calculations for the noble gas atoms He to Xe [PDF]
We report all-electron variational and diffusion quantum Monte Carlo (VMC and DMC) calculations for the noble gas atoms He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe. The calculations were performed using Slater-Jastrow wave functions with Hartree-Fock single-particle orbitals.

Accurate Ab Initio Quantum Mechanics Simulations of Bi_2Se_3 and Bi_2Te_3 Topological Insulator Surfaces [PDF]
It has been established experimentally that Bi_2Te_3 and Bi_2Se_3 are topological insulators, with zero band gap surface states exhibiting linear dispersion at the Fermi energy.

Chlorine adsorption on the Cu(111) surface
We investigate the adsorption of chlorine on the Cu(111) surface with full potential all-electron density functional calculations. Chlorine adsorption at the fcc hollow sites is slightly preferred over that at the hcp hollow.

Linear scaling quantum chemical methods for Density Functional Theory are extended to the condensed phase at the $\Gamma$-point. For the two-electron Coulomb matrix, this is achieved with a tree-code algorithm for fast Coulomb summation [J. Chem. Phys. {\

Oxygen disorder in ice probed by X-ray Compton scattering
We use electron momentum density in ice as a tool to quantify order-disorder transitions by comparing Compton profiles differences of ice VI, VII, VIII and XII with respect to ice Ih.
