§  Ported the main functionality of a major QMC code to run fully on GPU clusters

§  In use for production simulations §  e.g. Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 185702 (2010)

§  Achieves about 15x quad-core processor §  Some caveats (e.g. mixed precision vs. double §  CPU code is well optimized (SSE intrinsics, etc.)

§  Parallelized to run on MPI clusters of GPUs §  ~88% parallel efficiency with 256 GPUs

Why QMC on GPUs? § QMC consumes many cycles

§  e.g. ~70 million core hours on Jaguar in 2009 §  8k cores 24/7

§  It affords multiple levels for parallelization §  “Natural” Monte Carlo parallelism (walkers) §  Electrons, orbitals, ions, etc.

§ MPI communication requirements are low §  Primarily for load balancing

§ With GPUs §  Small problems are doable on a workstation §  Large problems are much cheaper

Why not QMC on GPUs? § Many kernels to port

§  No single major kernel §  Wave functions take many forms §  Subset of functionality: §  ~100 CUDA kernels, ~10k lines of kernel code

§ Algorithms and data need restructuring §  Need to utilize more parallelism than on CPUs

§ Debugging stochastic methods is hard § No libraries for the kernels we need

All-electron QMC for solids •  Current QMC calculations on

solids use pseudopotentials (PPs) from Hartree-Fock or DFT

•  When different PPs give different results, how do we know which to use?

•  In DFT, decide based on agreement with all-electron calculation

•  We would like to do the same in QMC. Has only been done for hydrogen and helium.

•  LAPW is generally gold standard for DFT.

•  Use orbitals from LAPW calculation in QMC simulation.

•  Requires efficient evaluation methods and careful numerics

•  Use atomic-like representation near nuclei, plane-wave or B-splines in interstitial region:

cBN Raman Frequencies •  Within harmonic approx. DFT frequency is reasonable

•  But, cBN Raman mode is quite anharmonic

•  With anharmonic corrections, DFT frequencies are not so good.

•  Compute energy vs. displacement with DMC and do 4th-order fit. Solve 1D Schrodinger eq. to get frequency

•  Anharmonic DMC frequency is correct to within statistical error

cBN Raman Frequencies •  Raman frequencies are linear in 1/V •  When combined with EOS, data can be used

to directly measure pressure from the Raman frequency

•  There is some intrinsic T-dependent shift due to anharmonicity

Finite Size Corrections and Infinite Size Energy Extrapolation QMC deals with isolated systems and without consideration of periodic boundary conditions

We used the 8 twists average to reduce the one-body finite size errors. To reduce the two-body finite size errors, we used the Model Periodic Coulomb (MPC) interaction to correct the potential energy and used the scheme of Chiesa, Ceperley and Martin (CCM) to correct the kinetic energy.

while children had detectable antibodies to PfSEA-1.These data suggest that anti–PfSEA-1 responsescould augment responses to other targets, suchas PfEMP-1, that may protect against severe ma-laria (24). Under conditions of natural exposure,only 6% of 1.5- to 3.5-year-old children in ourcohort had detectable antibodies to PfSEA-1. Thislow natural prevalence suggests that adjuvantedvaccination with PfSEA-1 could have a markedimpact on reducing severe malaria in youngchildren.In a second longitudinal Kenyan cohort, anti–

PfSEA-1 antibodies were associated with signif-icant protection against parasitemia in adolescentsand young adults. Individuals with detectableIgG anti–rPfSEA-1A antibodies had 50% lowerparasite densities over 18 weeks of follow-upcompared with individuals with no detectableIgG anti-rPfSEA-1A antibodies. It was noteworthythat the prevalence of detectable anti–rPfSEA-1Aantibodies in this age group (56%) was substan-tially higher than in our birth cohort, which sug-gests that natural exposure boosts anti–PfSEA-1 antibody levels.Together, our data validate our field-to-lab-to-

field-based strategy for the rational identifica-tion of vaccine candidates and support PfSEA-1as a candidate for pediatric falciparum malaria.By blocking schizont egress, PfSEA-1 may syn-ergize with other vaccines targeting hepatocyte(25) and RBC invasion (26).

The mineralogical constitution of the Earth’s mantle dictates the geophysical andgeochemical properties of this region. Previous models of a perovskite-dominant lowermantle have been built on the assumption that the entire lower mantle down to thetop of the D″ layer contains ferromagnesian silicate [(Mg,Fe)SiO3] with nominally10 mole percent Fe. On the basis of experiments in laser-heated diamond anvil cells, atpressures of 95 to 101 gigapascals and temperatures of 2200 to 2400 kelvin, we foundthat such perovskite is unstable; it loses its Fe and disproportionates to a nearlyFe-free MgSiO3 perovskite phase and an Fe-rich phase with a hexagonal structure. Thisobservation has implications for enigmatic seismic features beyond ~2000 kilometersdepth and suggests that the lower mantle may contain previously unidentifiedmajor phases.

The conventional view of materials in Earth’slower mantle, which comprises the largestfraction of our planet (>55% by volume), hasevolved greatly in the past 10 years. High-pressure-temperature (P-T) experiments of

the past century suggested that the predominantphase was ferromagnesian silicate [(Mg,Fe)SiO3]with the orthorhombic perovskite (pv) structure,unchanging over the enormous P-T range from thebottom of the transition zone at 670 km depth(24 GPa) to the core-mantle boundary (CMB) at2900km (136GPa).However, laser-heated diamondanvil cell (DAC) technology coupled with x-rayspectroscopy (XRS) and x-ray diffraction (XRD)probes have led to two key discoveries: namely,the phase transition of (Mg,Fe)SiO3 pv to the

post-perovskite (ppv) structure (1–3) near the D″layer of the lower mantle, and the pressure-induced spin-pairing of the 3d electrons in Fe (4–6)

while children had detectable antibodies to PfSEA-1.These data suggest that anti–PfSEA-1 responsescould augment responses to other targets, suchas PfEMP-1, that may protect against severe ma-laria (24). Under conditions of natural exposure,only 6% of 1.5- to 3.5-year-old children in ourcohort had detectable antibodies to PfSEA-1. Thislow natural prevalence suggests that adjuvantedvaccination with PfSEA-1 could have a markedimpact on reducing severe malaria in youngchildren.In a second longitudinal Kenyan cohort, anti–

PfSEA-1 antibodies were associated with signif-icant protection against parasitemia in adolescentsand young adults. Individuals with detectableIgG anti–rPfSEA-1A antibodies had 50% lowerparasite densities over 18 weeks of follow-upcompared with individuals with no detectableIgG anti-rPfSEA-1A antibodies. It was noteworthythat the prevalence of detectable anti–rPfSEA-1Aantibodies in this age group (56%) was substan-tially higher than in our birth cohort, which sug-gests that natural exposure boosts anti–PfSEA-1 antibody levels.Together, our data validate our field-to-lab-to-

field-based strategy for the rational identifica-tion of vaccine candidates and support PfSEA-1as a candidate for pediatric falciparum malaria.By blocking schizont egress, PfSEA-1 may syn-ergize with other vaccines targeting hepatocyte(25) and RBC invasion (26).

coexisting MgSiO3 pv suggests an (Mg,Fe)SiO3

composition with Fe enrichment.We repeated the Fs15 experiments with Ne pres-

sure medium five times over the same P-T regionand were able to observe the disproportionationreaction and the formation of the H-phase re-peatedly (Fig. 1 and fig. S4).We found that theH-phase growsmore readily in theNemedium,whichprovides a quasi-hydrostatic environment that issuperior to that of other media. To eliminate thepossibility of any experimental artifacts intro-duced by Ne, we have also successfully repeatedthe observation of the disproportionation andappearance of the H-phase with SiO2 glass as thepressuremedia and insulation layers withoutNe.

Symmetry and Unit Cell Parametersof H-phase

In the two-phase mixed XRD pattern, the low-symmetry orthorhombic pv has many peaksinterfering with the H-phase peaks at the lowd-spacing region; only three peaks above 2.4 Åare specific to the H-phase. Moreover, powderXRD patterns only contain d-spacing information,and successful indexing of multiple peaks couldstill be inconclusive. The spottiness of the XRDpowder pattern may also introduce uncertaintyin peak intensity (fig. S8). On the other hand,single-crystal XRD contains three-dimensionalorientation and geometrical relationship in addi-tion to d-spacings and thus provides a moredefinitive characterization of the unit cell.We used a multigrain crystallography method

(22) to search and determine the orientationmatrices ofmultiple individual crystallites simul-taneously within the sample (20). We conductedprolonged laser-heating that promoted growthof a coarser-grained multiple-crystal aggregate,including MgSiO3 pv and H-phase crystals at101 GPa (Fig. 2A). By rotating the w (vertical) axisof the DAC holder to T21° at the steps of 0.1°,154 individual crystallites—each with 11 to 27reflections consistent with the H-phase—wereidentified within the x-ray beam spot of 6 by8 mm (Tables 1 and 2 and table S1). Six {101}diffraction reflections belonging to three Friedel’spairs from another crystallite further confirmthese results (Fig. 2B). With the stringent re-quirement that all reflections from each of the154 crystallites must satisfy the d-spacing, rota-tion angle w, and azimuthal angle h predicted byits particular orientation matrix, we confirmedthe symmetry and the basic unit cell of theH-phase. For comparison in the same sample at101 GPa using the same indexing procedure (20),we also identified and indexed 130 individualcrystallites of theMgSiO3 pv phase to the knownPbnm space group, with the maximum of 48reflections observed in a crystallite.To verify that all predicted reflections were in-

deed from the same single crystallite and not for-tuitously from the diffraction of another crystallitewithin the 6 by 8 mm x-ray spot, we were able tocover only about 10 crystallites by using the 0.3 by0.5 mm focused polychromatic and monochromaticx-ray beam (23). Thepolychromatic LaueXRDspotsof different Miller indices appear and disappear
