We perform a systematic study of hydrogen-helium mixtures using quantum molecular dynamics (QMD) with a focus on the equations of state and structural and transport properties such as electrical conductivity, diffusion, and viscosity at conditions of giant planet interiors of 0.2∼2.3 g/cm(3) and 1000∼80,000 K for a typical helium mass fraction of 0.245. The H-He separation is found at low temperatures by analyzing the trajectories and pair distribution functions. We show that the diffusion coefficients exhibit transitions from kinetics- to potential-, and then to demixing-dominated regimes. In addition, we identify the discontinuity feature of optical absorption of a H-He mixture at low density and temperature conditions, which results from the change from an intraband to an interband transition. The Stokes-Einstein relation between the diffusion and viscosity coefficients is also discussed.
