Efficiency of ab-initio total energy calculations for metals and semiconductors using a plane-wave basis set

TL;DR: A detailed description and comparison of algorithms for performing ab-initio quantum-mechanical calculations using pseudopotentials and a plane-wave basis set is presented in this article. But this is not a comparison of our algorithm with the one presented in this paper.

Refinement of macromolecular structures by the maximum-likelihood method.

TL;DR: The likelihood function for macromolecular structures is extended to include prior phase information and experimental standard uncertainties and the results derived are consistently better than those obtained from least-squares refinement.
Journal ArticleDOI

The SIESTA method for ab initio order-N materials simulation

TL;DR: In this paper, a selfconsistent density functional method using standard norm-conserving pseudopotentials and a flexible, numerical linear combination of atomic orbitals basis set, which includes multiple-zeta and polarization orbitals, was developed and implemented.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the variation of the initial mass function

TL;DR: In this paper, the uncertainty inherent in any observational estimate of the IMF is investigated by studying the scatter introduced by Poisson noise and the dynamical evolution of star clusters, and it is found that this apparent scatter reproduces quite well the observed scatter in power-law index determinations, thus defining the fundamental limit within which any true variation becomes undetectable.

The weighted histogram analysis method for free-energy calculations on biomolecules. I: The method

TL;DR: The Weighted Histogram Analysis Method (WHAM) as mentioned in this paper is an extension of Ferrenberg and Swendsen's multiple histogram technique for complex biomolecular Hamiltonians.
