Ion modes in dense ionized plasmas through nonadiabatic molecular dynamics

We perform nonadiabatic simulations of warm dense aluminum based on the electron-force field (EFF) variant of wave-packet molecular dynamics. Comparison of the static ion-ion structure factor with density functional theory (DFT) is used to validate the technique across a range of temperatures and de...
