Reconciling simulated melting and ground-state properties of metals with a modified embedded-atom method potential

We propose a modification of the embedded-atom method-type potential aiming at reconciling simulated melting and ground-state properties of metals by means of classical molecular dynamics. Considering titanium, magnesium, gold, and platinum as case studies, we demonstrate that simulations performed with the modified force field yield quantitatively correctly both the melting temperature of the metals and their ground-state properties. It is shown that the accounting for the long-range interatomic interactions noticeably affects the melting point assessment.

Screening corrections for the interference contributions to the electron and positron scattering cross sections from polyatomic molecules

An improvement of the screening-corrected Additivity Rule (SCAR) is proposed for calculating electron and positron scattering cross sections from polyatomic molecules within the independent atom model (IAM), following the analysis of numerical solutions to the three-dimensional Lippmann–Schwinger equation for multicenter potentials. Interference contributions affect all the considered energy range (1–300 eV); the lower energies where the atomic screening is most effective and higher energies, where interatomic distances are large compared to total cross sections and electron wavelengths.
