Reply to “Comment on ‘Phase diagram of MgO from density-functional theory and molecular-dynamics simulations’”

Abstract

In answer to a Comment by Belonoshko [Phys. Rev. B 63, 096101 (2001)], we show that the B1-liquid melting curve of MgO obtained using two-phase simulations is in good agreement with the published one obtained using the Clausius-Clapeyron equation in conjunction with separate single phase calculations of liquid and solid
