Calculation of the melting curve of lead

Abstract: Using a suitable modification of the method which has been recently applied to sodium with some success, the melting of lead is investigated in the present paper. With the help of a model potential which quite properly describes the equilibrium static and dynamic properties of the metal, the theoretical melting curve is in fair agreement with the experimental static points (available up to 90 kbars) and also enables us to predict incipient melting on the Hugoniot curve for a pressure of 470 kbars, a value which is corroborated by recent shock-wave work.
