Abstract

Molecular dynamics simulation and Hypernetted‐chain approximation of the liquids have been applied to obtained the static structure and transport properties of superionic β‐Mg3Bi2 at liquid phase near melting temperature. The potential used for the calculations has the same functional form that is originally used to investigate the fast‐ion conduction phase of α‐AgI. The system is still under investigation and should be concluded soon.
