<div> <div> <div> <p>Many-body potential energy functions (PEFs) based on the TTM-nrg and MB-nrg theoretical/computational frameworks are developed from coupled cluster reference data for neat methane and mixed methane/water systems. It is shown that that the MB-nrg PEFs achieve subchemical accuracy in the representation of individual many-body effects in small clusters and enables predictive simulations from the gas to the liquid phase. Analysis of structural properties calculated from molecular dynamics simulations of liquid methane and methane/water mixtures using both TTM-nrg and MB-nrg PEFs indicates that, while accounting for polarization effects is important for a correct description of many-body interactions in the liquid phase, an accurate representation of short-range interactions, as provided by the MB-nrg PEFs, is necessary for a quantitative description of the local solvation structure in liquid mixtures. </p> </div> </div> </div>

<div> <div> <div> <p>Interaction energies of halide-water dimers, X<sup>-</sup>(H<sub>2</sub>O), and trimers, X<sup>-</sup>(H<sub>2</sub>O)<sub>2</sub>, with X = F, Cl, Br, and I, are investigated using various many-body models and exchange-correlation functionals selected across the hierarchy of density functional theory (DFT) approximations. Analysis of the results obtained with the many-body models demonstrates the need to capture important short-range interactions in the regime of large inter-molecular orbital overlap, such as charge transfer and charge penetration. Failure to reproduce these effects can lead to large deviations relative to reference data calculated at the coupled cluster level of theory. Decompositions of interaction energies carried out with the absolutely localized molecular orbital energy decomposition analysis (ALMO-EDA) method demonstrate that permanent and inductive electrostatic energies are accurately reproduced by all classes of XC functionals (from generalized gradient corrected (GGA) to hybrid and range-separated functionals), while significant variance is found for charge transfer energies predicted by different XC functionals. Since GGA and hybrid XC functionals predict the most and least attractive charge transfer energies, respectively, the large variance is likely due to the delocalization error. In this scenario, the hybrid XC functionals are then expected to provide the most accurate charge transfer energies. The sum of Pauli repulsion and dispersion energies are the most varied among the XC functionals, but it is found that a correspondence between the interaction energy and the ALMO EDA total frozen energy may be used to determine accurate estimates for these contributions. </p> </div> </div> </div>

AbstractUsing a combination of genetic algorithms for the unbiased structure optimization and a Gupta many-body potential for the calculation of the energetic properties of a given structure, we determine the putative total-energy minima for all $$\hbox {Ag}_{m} \hbox {Rh}_n$$ Ag m Rh n clusters with a total number of atoms $$m+n$$ m + n up to 55. Subsequently, we use various descriptors to analyze the obtained structural and energetic properties. With the help of a similarity function, we show that the pure Ag and Rh clusters are structurally similar for sizes up to around 20 atoms. The same approach gives that the mixed clusters tend to possess a larger structural similarity with the pure Rh clusters than with the pure Ag clusters. However, for clusters with $$m\simeq n\ge 25$$ m ≃ n ≥ 25 , other structures dominate. The effective coordination numbers for the Ag and Rh atoms as well as the radial distributions of those atoms indicate that there is a tendency towards segregation with Rh atoms forming an inner part and the Ag atoms forming a shell. Only few clusters, all with a fairly large total number of atoms, are found to be particularly stable.

The zero-temperature ground state properties of experimental 87Rb condensate are studied in a harmonic plus quartic trap [ V(r) =  ½mω2r2 + λr4 ]. The anharmonic parameter (λ) is slowly tuned from harmonic to anharmonic. For each choice of λ, the many-particle Schrödinger equation is solved using the potential harmonic expansion method and determines the lowest effective many-body potential. We utilize the correlated two-body basis function, which keeps all possible two-body correlations. The use of van der Waals interaction gives realistic pictures. We calculate kinetic energy, trapping potential energy, interaction energy, and total ground state energy of the condensate in this confining potential, modelled experimentally. The motivation of the present study is to investigate the crucial dependency of the properties of an interacting quantum many-body system on λ. The average size of the condensate has also been calculated to observe how the stability of repulsive condensate depends on anharmonicity. In particular, our calculation presents a clear physical picture of the repulsive condensate in an anharmonic trap.

Theoretical Results

The structure and energetics of Pd N (N = 5–80) clusters have been studied extensively by a Monte Carlo method based on Sutton–Chen many-body potential. The basin-hopping algorithm is used to find the low-energy minima on the potential energy surface for each nuclearity. A variety of structure types (icosahedral, decahedral and fcc closed-packed) are observed for Pd clusters. Some of the icosahedral global minima do not have a central atom. The resulting structures have been compared with the previous theoretical results.

Fe sliding on a Fe substrate with surface texturing is investigated using molecular dynamics simulation. The modified embedded-atom method many-body potential is used to describe the interaction of Fe atoms. The tribological properties of surface texturing during nanosliding are discussed. Results indicate that a textured surface has lower friction than that of a flat surface. In addition, a surface with parallel grooves has lower friction than that of a dimpled surface. Hence, surface texturing greatly affects friction.

ABSTRACTIn this paper we analyze the effect of the surplus of titanium in the bulk on γ/γ interfaces. Monte Carlo calculations using a central force many-body potential suggest that in Ti rich alloys titanium segregates to the 120° rotational fault and the pseudotwin. This leads to the formation of a thin region of the DO19 Ti3Al at these interfaces. While titanium does not segregate to the ordered twin, it does to the ordered twin with the APB. But in this case the interface dissociates into the 120° rotational fault and the pseudotwin. The calculations further show that there are two types of atomic sites at the interfaces. One is the same as in the ideal L10 the other, to which the segregation takes place, is specific for interfaces parallel to {111} planes. The specific distribution of the sites favored for segregation is the reason why segregation leads to the formation of a narrow region of the DO19 Ti3Al in the 120° rotational fault and the pseudotwin.
