Density Functional Theory for Matter under Extreme Conditions

This project focuses on the advancement, implementation, and use of finite-temperature density functional theory (DFT), especially in orbital-free form, to achieve simulations of matter under extreme conditions, including warm dense matter (WDM) and systems in ultra-high magnetic fields.

Differing sectors of our work are supported under U.S. DOE Grant DE-SC0002139 and U.S. NSF grant DMR-1912618.
