TL;DR: Researchers have measured the equation of state of hydrocarbon in a high-density regime, which is necessary for accurate modelling of the oscillations of white dwarf stars and predicts an increase in compressibility due to ionization of the inner-core orbitals of carbon.
Journal Article
Formation of diamonds in laser-compressed hydrocarbons at planetary interior conditions
TL;DR: In this paper, an X-ray diffraction from polystyrene (C8H8n) samples was used to demonstrate the necessity of high pressures for carbon-hydrogen separation.

Generalized Gradient Approximation Made Simple
TL;DR: A simple derivation of a simple GGA is presented, in which all parameters (other than those in LSD) are fundamental constants, and only general features of the detailed construction underlying the Perdew-Wang 1991 (PW91) GGA are invoked.

Density-functional theory of atoms and molecules
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of current studies in density functional theory and density matrix functional theory is presented, with special attention to the possible applications within chemistry, including the concept of an atom in a molecule, calculation of electronegativities from the Xα method, pressure, Gibbs-Duhem equation, Maxwell relations and stability conditions.

Unified Approach for Molecular Dynamics and Density-Functional Theory
Roberto Car,Michele Parrinello +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a unified scheme combining molecular dynamics and density-functional theory is presented, which makes possible the simulation of both covalently bonded and metallic systems and permits the application of density functional theory to much larger systems than previously feasible.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of the indirect‐drive approach to inertial confinement fusion and the target physics basis for ignition and gain
TL;DR: In this paper, an approach to fusion that relies on either electron conduction (direct drive) or x rays (indirect drive) for energy transport to drive an implosion is presented.
