Aims of this study 1.Calculate excitation spectrum from first principles 2.Explore the nature of the excitations, i.e. are they related to vacancies, defects, localized modes, … Goals and Motivation Why Correlation Function Quantum Monte Carlo? 1.Used to obtain excitation energies for molecular vibrations and homogeneous electron gas 2.Both energies and excited state wavefunctions are available, providing more microscopic detail Carleo, et al., PRB 80, (2009)

Conclusions A site local basis appears to sufficiently describe acoustic modes Lower optic branch unobserved, perhaps qualitative differences Possible sighting of higher optic modes Future Work Investigate higher optic mode with longer projection in smaller cell Compute real space density to assess the nature of the excitations *Supported by DOE Endstation Grant: DOE-DEFG05-08OR23336 Conclusions and Future Work
