Investigating the magnetovolume effect in isotropic body-centered-cubic iron using spin-lattice dynamics simulations

The understanding of the magnetovolume effect lacks explicit consideration of spin-lattice coupling at the atomic level, despite abundant theoretical and experimental studies throughout the years. This research gap is filled by the recently developed spin-lattice dynamics technique implemented in th...
