Machine-learning the electronic density of states: electronic properties without quantum mechanics

The electronic density of states (DOS) quantifies the distribution of the energy levels that can be occupied by electrons in a quasiparticle picture and is central to modern electronic structure theory. It also underpins the computation and interpretation ...

How important are the residual nonadiabatic couplings for an accurate simulation of nonadiabatic quantum dynamics in a quasidiabatic representation?

Jiri Vanicek, Seonghoon Choi

Diabatization of the molecular Hamiltonian is a standard approach to remove the singularities of nonadiabatic couplings at conical intersections of adiabatic potential energy surfaces. In general, it is impossible to eliminate the nonadiabatic couplings en ...

Vibrationally inelastic scattering of HCl from Ag(111)

Jan Daniel Geweke

Using molecular beam cooled samples and quantum state-selective detection, we observe v = 0 -> 1 vibrational transitions when HCl (v = 0) collides with an Ag(111) surface and derive both the incidence energy and surface temperature dependence of the transi ...

Nonadiabatic effects in electronic and nuclear dynamics

Majed Chergui, Ursula Röthlisberger, Jiri Vanicek, Martin Peter Bircher, Tomas Zimmermann, Elisa Liberatore, Aurélien Kevin Fabrice Patoz, Nicholas John Browning

Due to their very nature, ultrafast phenomena are often accompanied by the occurrence of nonadiabatic effects. From a theoretical perspective, the treatment of nonadiabatic processes makes it necessary to go beyond the (quasi) static picture provided by th ...
