Fermionic path integral Monte Carlo results for the uniform electron gas   at finite temperature
  The uniform electron gas (UEG) at finite temperature has recently attracted substantial interest due to the epxerimental progress in the field of warm dense matter. To explain the experimental data accurate theoretical models for high density plasmas are needed which crucially depend on the quality of the thermodynamic properties of the quantum degenerate correlated electrons. Recent fixed node path integral Monte Carlo (RPIMC) data are the most accurate for the UEG at finite temperature, but they become questionable at high degeneracy when the Brueckner parameter $r_s$ becomes smaller than $1$. Here we present new improved direct fermionic PIMC simulations that are exptected to be more accurate than RPIMC at high densities.
