Hydrogen and helium are the most abundant elements in the Universe. They are also, in
principle, the most simple. Nonetheless, they display remarkable properties under extreme …

During the past five years, major progress has been made in the experimental study of solid
hydrogen at ultrahigh pressures as a result of developments in diamond-cell technology …

Metal hydrides are of inestimable importance for the future of hydrogen energy. This unique
monograph presents a clear and comprehensive description of the bulk properties of the …

Spectral distribution functions of electron-phonon interaction α 2 F (ω) obtained by ab initio
linear-response calculations are used to describe various superconducting and transport …

SOLID hydrogen is predicted1, 2 to become metallic at high pressures. Although
metallization was recently reported in high-pressure shock-wave compression experiments …

Intramolecular vibrations strongly scatter electrons near the Fermi-surface in doped
fullerenes. A simple expression for the electron-phonon coupling parameters for this case is …

A high-intensity laser was used to shock-compress liquid deuterium to pressures from 22 to
340 gigapascals. In this regime deuterium is predicted to transform from an insulating …

Progress in high pressure physics is reviewed with special emphasis on recent
developments in experimental techniques, pressure calibration, equations of state for simple …

Electrical conductivity measurements indicate that fluid hydrogen achieves the minimum
conductivity of a metal at 140 GPa, ninefold initial liquid-H 2 density, and 2600 K …

Ab initio random structure searching using density functional theory is used to determine the
ground-state structures of atomic metallic hydrogen from 500 GPa to 5 TPa. Including proton …
