Abstract
The interaction potential plays an important role in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of MgSiO 3 perovskite. A new set of potential parameters is developed by means of combining two fitting potential parameters of previous studies. The constant-pressure heating capacity of MgSiO 3 are simulated by using the new set of potential parameters. It is shown that the heating capacity of MgSiO 3 perovskite are close to the experimental data.
