RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Static, dynamic and electronic properties of some trivalent liquid rare earth metals near melting: ab initio and neural network simulations A1 González Del Rio, Beatriz A1 González Tesedo, Luis Enrique AB We report a study on several static and dynamic properties of the early trivalent liquid rare-earth metalsat thermodynamic conditions near their respective melting points. It has been performed by resorting tomachine learning (ML) techniques, in which the associated neural network-based interatomic potentialswere derived from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations within Hubbard-corrected density functionaltheory. We report the results obtained for the static structural properties, including an analysis of thelocal short-range order. Single-particle and collective dynamic properties have also been obtained, fromwhich transport coefficients and wavevector-dependent dispersion relations are evaluated. The resultsshow a quite homogeneous behavior of the structural, dynamic, and transport properties throughout theseries. The electronic properties have been obtained from the ab initio simulations, and show importantdiscrepancies with respect to the low temperature solids, portraying a more band-like picture of the 4fstates in the liquid.
