We report computer-based simulations for the many-body electronic structure of Curium metal. Cm belongs to the actinide series and has a half-filled shell with seven $5f$ electrons. As a function of pressure, curium exhibits five different crystallographic phases. At low temperatures all phases demonstrate either antiferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic ordering. In this study we perform LDA+DMFT calculations for the antiferromagnetic state of high-pressure fcc modification of Curium metal.
