The Born-Oppenheimer Approximation
where R is the set of nuclear coordinates and r is the set of electronic coordinates. If spin-orbit effects are important, they can be added through a spin-orbit operator Ĥso. Unfortunately, the V̂eN(r,R) term prevents us from separating Ĥ into nuclear and electronic parts, which would allow us to write the molecular wavefunction as a product of nuclear and electronic terms, Ψ(r,R) = Ψ(r)χ(R). W...
متن کاملThe diagonal Born–Oppenheimer correction beyond the Hartree–Fock approximation
We report on evaluation of the diagonal Born–Oppenheimer correction ~DBOC! to the electronic energy with Hartree–Fock ~HF! and conventional correlated wave functions for general molecular systems. Convergence of both HF and configuration interaction ~CI! DBOC with the one-particle basis seems to be rather fast, with triple-z quality correlation consistent sets of Dunning et al. sufficiently com...
متن کاملChemical reaction dynamics beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation.
To predict the branching between energetically allowed product channels, chemists often rely on statistical transition state theories or exact quantum scattering calculations on a single adiabatic potential energy surface. The potential energy surface gives the energetic barriers to each chemical reaction and allows prediction of the reaction rates. Yet, chemical reactions evolve on a single po...
متن کاملBeyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation with quantum Monte Carlo
In this work we develop tools that enable the study of non-adiabatic effects with variational and diffusion Monte Carlo methods. We introduce a highly accurate wave function ansatz for electronion systems that can involve a combination of both fixed and quantum ions. We explicitly calculate the ground state energies of H2, LiH, H2O and FHF − using fixed-node quantum Monte Carlo with wave functi...
متن کاملElectronic Flux Density beyond the Born-Oppenheimer Approximation.
In the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, the electronic wave function is typically real-valued and hence the electronic flux density (current density) seems to vanish. This is unfortunate for chemistry, because it precludes the possibility to monitor the electronic motion associated with the nuclear motion during chemical rearrangements from a Born-Oppenheimer simulation of the process. We study ...
