Abstract

We have developed an empirical EAM potential for magnesium by fitting to ab initio forces (the 'force matching' method) and experimental data. The database includes many different structures, including bulk, cluster, liquid and several defect structures. The potential fit to the forces database, which has 2201 forces generated using a local orbital pseudopotential method, is good. This new EAM potential gives good results for various bulk structural properties.
