Simultaneous Prediction of the Magnetic and Crystal Structure of Materials Using a Genetic Algorithm

We introduce a number of extensions and enhancements to a genetic algorithm for crystal structure prediction, to make it suitable to study magnetic systems. The coupling between magnetic properties and crystal structure means that it is essential to take a holistic approach, and we present for the f...
