Path-integral Monte Carlo simulation of helium at negative pressures
Path-integral Monte Carlo simulations of liquid helium at negative pressure have been carried out for a temperature range from the critical temperature to below the superfluid transition. We have calculated the temperature dependence of the spinodal line as well as the pressure dependence of the isothermal sound velocity in the region of the spinodal. We discuss the slope of the superfluid tran...
متن کاملPath integral Monte Carlo study of SF6-doped helium clusters
The path-integral Monte Carlo technique is applied to study the SF6He39 cluster at low temperatures. The method employs as input only pair potentials, the number of atoms, and the temperature, and is thus independent of the trial function bias which can affect calculation of structural quantities in variational and diffusion Monte Carlo. We thereby obtain an unambiguous answer to the question o...
متن کاملIsotopic shift of helium melting pressure: Path integral Monte Carlo study.
We compute by Path Integral Monte Carlo the isotopic shift of helium melting pressure in the temperature range (T > 100 K) where a discrepancy between theory and experiment has been recently reported. We use a realistic Aziz pair potential together with Bruch-McGee three-body forces for the interaction. The isotopic shift predicted in this work is in agreement with experiment; its measurement p...
متن کاملExtrapolated high-order propagators for path integral Monte Carlo simulations.
We present a new class of high-order imaginary time propagators for path integral Monte Carlo simulations that require no higher order derivatives of the potential nor explicit quadratures of Gaussian trajectories. Higher orders are achieved by an extrapolation of the primitive second-order propagator involving subtractions. By requiring all terms of the extrapolated propagator to have the same...
متن کاملMultilevel Monte Carlo Path Simulation
We show that multigrid ideas can be used to reduce the computational complexity of estimating an expected value arising from a stochastic differential equation using Monte Carlo path simulations. In the simplest case of a Lipschitz payoff and an Euler discretisation, the computational cost to achieve an accuracy of O( ) is reduced from O( −3) to O( −2(log )2). The analysis is supported by numer...
