Multiphase Uranium EOS

ORAL

Abstract

We present the results of an empirically derived multiphase Uranium equation of state. The equation of state includes the orthorhombic, bcc and fluid phases. The effects of phase transitions (Clausius-Claperon, volume changes, specific heats) are treated self-consistently. We will also present comparisons of the equation of state to electronic structure results.
