High pressure melt curve of iron from atom-in-jellium calculations

Although usually considered as a technique for predicting electron states in dense plasmas, atom-in-jellium calculations can be used to predict the mean displacement of the ion from its equilibrium position in colder matter as a function of compression and temperature. The Lindemann criterion of a c...
