Atomistic model of diopside–K-jadeite (CaMgSi2O6–KAlSi2O6) solid solution

Atomistic model was proposed to describe the thermodynamics of mixing in the diopside–K-jadeite solid solution (CaMgSi2O6–KAlSi2O6). The simulations were based on minimization of the latticeenergies of 800 structures within a 2 × 2 × 4 supercell of C2/c diopside with the compositions betweenCaMgSi2O...
