Non-local path integral Monte Carlo on the hypercube

Creators

Description

Some interesting physical properties of solid 3He are described and the physical observable calculated using Monte Carlo path integral techniques is defined. The relationship between the path integral and the observable is outlined. The parallel algorithm is explained and finally, timing results are presented for runs of the identical code on one parallel computer and two sequential computers: the NCUBE hypercube, the Cray XMP, the Elxsi 6400
