Extended Gaussian wave packet dynamics
Wave packet dynamics has exposed interesting new phenomena in several fields. In femto-chemistry [1,2] we are now able to time-resolve chemical processes and also observe effects such as the breakup and revival of wave packets [3]. In atom optics wave packets are used to model matter waves [4] and electron wave packets are seen in the dynamics of Rydberg atoms [5]. The numerical modelling of wa...
متن کاملSymplectic semiclassical wave packet dynamics
The paper gives a symplectic-geometric account of semiclassical Gaussian wave packet dynamics. We employ geometric techniques to “strip away” the symplectic structure behind the time-dependent Schrödinger equation and incorporate it into semiclassical wave packet dynamics. We show that the Gaussian wave packet dynamics of Heller is a Hamiltonian system with respect to the symplectic structure, ...
متن کاملQuantum wave packet ab initio molecular dynamics: an approach to study quantum dynamics in large systems.
A methodology to efficiently conduct simultaneous dynamics of electrons and nuclei is presented. The approach involves quantum wave packet dynamics using an accurate banded, sparse and Toeplitz representation for the discrete free propagator, in conjunction with ab initio molecular dynamics treatment of the electronic and classical nuclear degree of freedom. The latter may be achieved either by...
متن کاملHamiltonian approach for the wave packet dynamics: Beyond Gaussian wave functions
It is well known that the Gaussian wave packet dynamics can be written in terms of Hamilton equations in the extended phase space that is twice as large as in the corresponding classical system. We construct several generalizations of this approach that include non-Gausssian wave packets. These generalizations lead to the further extension of the phase space while retaining the Hamilton structu...
متن کاملWave packet dynamics in Yang-Mills theory.
We discuss the results of numerical simulations of colliding wavepackets in SU(2) Yang–Mills theory. We investigate their behavior as a function of amplitude and momentum distribution. We find regions in our parameter space in which initial wave packets scatter into final configurations with dramatically different momentum distributions. These results constitute new classical trajectories with ...
