Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Experimentally, hydrostatic pressure experiments provide a very sensitive way to probe the development of magnetic ordering in correlated-electron systems. We have now developed and applied theory allowing us to understand and quantitatively predict the variation of ordering temperature with pressure in uranium-based correlated-electron materials on a wholly predictive calculated basis, i.e., without using any experimental data as input in the calculation. The theory physically captures the changes in the f spectral density distribution in space and time that are driven by pressure-induced increased band-f hybridization. As a test case, we have predicted behavior in good agreement with experiment for UTe where experimentally (Link et al.) T increases from 104 K to a maximum of 181 K at 7.5 GPa and then decreases to 156 K at 17.5 GPa. Our calculations: (1) using full-potential total-energy calculations match the experimental lattice parameter change with pressure within 2% and provide the decrease in average 5f-electron number; (2) extract information from the electronic structure calculation on the hybridization-induced changes and insert this into many-body theory to calculate the increase in two-ion coupling with pressure (from increased f spectral admixture into the bands) giving the initial increase in T; (3) calculate the decrease in ordering temperature (in terms of coupling) with decreased 5f number (localized spectral density) which gives the ultimate decrease in T.
