Reply to “Comment on ‘Determination of the bulk melting temperature of nickel using Monte Carlo simulations: Inaccuracy of extrapolation from cluster melting temperatures' ”
The thermodynamic integration (TI) method for determining the melting temperature has to be performed with great care to ensure accuracy. Since the slopes of the Gibbs free energy curves as a function of temperature (or pressure) are usually rather close, small shifts in the free energy curves can l...
