ONETEP + TOSCAM: Uniting Dynamical Mean Field Theory and Linear-Scaling Density Functional Theory

Many-Body Study of Iron(III)-Bound Human Serum Transferrin

We present the very first density functional theory and dynamical mean field theory calculations of iron-bound human serum transferrin. Peaks in the optical conductivity at 250, 300, and 450 nm were observed, in line with experimental measurements. Spin multiplet analysis suggests that the ground state is a mixed state with high entropy, indicating the importance of strong electronic correlation in this system's chemistry.

Superlight pairs in face-centred-cubic extended Hubbard models with strong Coulomb repulsion

The majority of fulleride superconductors with unusually high transition-temperature to kinetic-energy ratios have a face-centred-cubic (FCC) structure. We demonstrate that, within extended Hubbard models with strong Coulomb repulsion, paired fermions in FCC lattices have qualitatively different properties than pairs in other three-dimensional cubic lattices. Our results show that strongly bound, light, and small pairs can be generated in FCC lattices across a wide range of the parameter space. We estimate that such pairs can Bose condense at high temperatures even if the lattice constant is large (as in the fullerides).
