متن کاملVibrational spectra of polyatomic molecules assisted by quantum thermal baths.
We assess the performance of colored-noise thermostats to generate quantum mechanical initial conditions for molecular dynamics simulations, in the context of infrared spectra of large polyatomic molecules. Comparison with centroid molecular dynamics simulations taken as reference shows that the method is accurate in predicting line shifts and band widths in the ionic cluster (NaCl)(32) and in ...
متن کاملQuantum coherent contributions in biological electron transfer
Many biological electron transfer (ET) reactions are mediated by metal centres in proteins. NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase (complex I) contains an intramolecular chain of seven iron-sulphur (FeS) clusters [1], one of the longest chains of metal centres in biology and a test case for physical models of intramolecular ET. In biology, intramolecular ET is commonly described as a diffusive hopping ...
متن کاملRole of vibrational dynamics in resonant positron annihilation on molecules.
Vibrational Feshbach resonances are dominant features of positron annihilation for incident positron energies in the range of the molecular vibrations. Studies in relatively small molecules are described that elucidate the role of intramolecular vibrational energy redistribution into near-resonant multimode states, and the subsequent coupling of these modes to the positron continuum, in suppres...
متن کاملUltrafast quantum effects and vibrational dynamics in organic and biological systems, a lay person’s summary
This thesis covers a myriad of interconnected topics concerning biological micro-organisms and synthetic micro-robots. Via intricate propulsion strategies these micro-swimmers can move through strongly viscosity-dominated liquids to achieve their goals, be it to invade new territories or to deliver drugs to infected regions. Therefore, the understanding of bacterial motility immediately impacts...
