Abstract

By applying auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo, we calculate the equation of state (EOS) and B1-B2 phase transition of magnesium oxide (MgO) up to 1 TPa. The results agree with available experimental data at low pressures and are used to benchmark the performance of various exchange-correlation functionals in density functional theory calculations. We determine PBEsol is an optimal choice for the exchange-correlation functional and perform extensive phonon and quantum molecular-dynamics calculations to obtain the thermal EOS. Our results provide a preliminary reference for the EOS and B1-B2 phase boundary of MgO from 0 to 10 500 K.
