Dislocation Structure and Mobility in Hcp Rare-Gas Solids: Quantum versus Classical

We study the structural and mobility properties of edge dislocations in rare-gas crystals with the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) structure by using classical simulation techniques. Our results are discussed in the light of recent experimental and theoretical studies on hcp 4 He, an archetypal...
