Analysis of the Applicability of the Yukawa Model and Chapman–Enskog Approach for Heated Beryllium at Metallic Density Using Quantum Molecular Dynamics by Moldir Issanova, Nasriddin Djienbekov, Tlekkabul Ramazanov, Gaukhar Omiraliyeva, Sandugash Kodanova, Akmaral Kenzhebekova

“…We conducted a comprehensive analysis of quantum molecular dynamics (QMD) simulation results for beryllium (Be) at metallic density and temperatures up to 32,000 K. Using the QMD results for the radial distribution function (RDF), velocity autocorrelation function (VACF), mean-squared displacement (MSD), and the diffusion coefficient of ions, we confidently assess the effectiveness of the Yukawa one-component plasma model in describing ion structure and transport properties. …”
