GAP general purpose interatomic potential for iron

  • 1. Aalto University

Description

A general purpose Gaussian Approximation Potential (GAP) [1,2] for iron. The training database has been computed at the PBE level of theory [3] using the VASP code [4-7]. Fitting of the potentials was done using QUIP/GAP [1,2,8].

The potential uses 2-body (distance_2b), 3-body (angle_3b) and SOAP (soap_turbo) [9,10] descriptors, as implemented in the TurboGAP code [11].

All files necessary to use the potential QUIP/GAP (compiled with the TurboGAP libraries) are in QUIP_files.tar.gz, all files to use with TurboGAP in TurboGAP_files.tar.gz. The database used to train the potential is in training_database.tar.gz.
