A gauge-compatible Hamiltonian splitting algorithm for particle-in-cell simulations using finite element exterior calculus

A particle-in-cell algorithm is derived with a canonical Poisson structure in the formalism of finite element exterior calculus. The resulting method belongs to the class of gauge-compatible splitting algorithms, which exactly preserve gauge symmetries and their associated conservation laws via the momentum map. We numerically demonstrate this time invariance of the momentum map and its usefulness in establishing precise initial conditions with a desired initial electric field and fixed background charge. The restriction of this canonical, finite element Poisson structure to the 1X2P $1\frac {1}{2}$ -dimensional phase space is also considered and simulated numerically.

Electron–Nucleus Hyperfine Coupling Calculated from Restricted Active Space Wavefunctions and an Exact Two-Component Hamiltonian

Exact two-component (X2C) relativistic nuclear hyperfine magnetic field operators were incorporated in X2C ab-initio wavefunction calculations at the multi-reference restricted active space (RAS) level for calculations of nuclear hyperfine magnetic properties. Spin-orbit coupling was treated via RAS state interaction (SO-RASSI). The method was tested by calculations of electron – nucleus hyperfine coupling constants. The approach, implemented in the OpenMolcas program, overcomes a major limitation of a previous SO-RASSI implementation for hyperfine coupling that relied on non-relativistic hyperfine operators [J. Chem. Theor. Comput. 2015, 11, 538–549] and therefore had only limited applicability. Furthermore, results from calculations on systems with light and heavy main group elements, transition metals, lanthanides, and one actinide complex, demonstrate reasonably good agreement with experimental data, where available, as long as the active space can generate sufficient spin polarization.

Integration of machine learning with neutron scattering for the Hamiltonian tuning of spin ice under pressure

Quantum materials research requires co-design of theory with experiments and involves demanding simulations and the analysis of vast quantities of data, usually including pattern recognition and clustering. Artificial intelligence is a natural route to optimise these processes and bring theory and experiments together. Here, we propose a scheme that integrates machine learning with high-performance simulations and scattering measurements, covering the pipeline of typical neutron experiments. Our approach uses nonlinear autoencoders trained on realistic simulations along with a fast surrogate for the calculation of scattering in the form of a generative model. We demonstrate this approach in a highly frustrated magnet, Dy 2 Ti 2 O 7 , using machine learning predictions to guide the neutron scattering experiment under hydrostatic pressure, extract material parameters and construct a phase diagram. Our scheme provides a comprehensive set of capabilities that allows direct integration of theory along with automated data processing and provides on a rapid timescale direct insight into a challenging condensed matter system.
