1 PublicationWarm dense matter and many body theory
Abstract
The talk will cover some recent attempts to recreate and describe the states of matter as in brown dwarfs, ice giant planets, or the earth. In particular, state of the art methods will be described to model the x-ray scattering signal of such warm dense matter states. Density functional theory seems to be a very promising tool, although upon close inspection, several problems arise that strongly limit the predictive power of this method. This leads to investigations of the underlying model system, the electron gas, using quantum Monte Carlo methods. Finally, we show a promising new method to study higher order correlations in the system by nonlinear excitations.
