Adiabatic diffusion Monte Carlo approaches for studies of ground and excited state properties of van der Waals complexes
نویسندگان
چکیده
Several adiabatic extensions to the diffusion Monte Carlo approach are presented. In the first, an adiabatic form of the finite field method is developed for the systematic evaluation of expectation values. In addition, an adiabatic flexible node method for calculating excited states is described. The above methods are applied to NeSH and Ar2HCl where comparisons to results of variational calculations can be made. © 1999 American Institute of Physics. @S0021-9606~99!02712-9#

Trial Function Optimization for Excited States of Van Der Waals Clusters
A method is introduced to optimize excited state trial wavefunctions. The method is applied to ground and vibrationally excited states of bosonic van der Waals clusters of upto seven particles. Employing optimized trial wave functions with three-body correlations, we use correlation function Monte Carlo to estimate the corresponding excited state energies.

A quantum Monte Carlo method is introduced to optimize excited-state trial wave functions. The method is applied in a correlation function Monte Carlo calculation to compute ground- and excited-state energies of bosonic van der Waals clusters of up to seven particles. The calculations are performed using trial wave functions with general three-body correlations.
متن کاملVolumetric properties of high temperature, high pressure supercritical fluids from improved van der Waals equation of state
In the present work, a modified equation of state has been presented for the calculation of volumetric properties of supercritical fluids. The equation of state is van der Waals basis with temperature and density-dependent parameters. This equation of state has been applied for predicting the volumetric properties of fluids. The densities of fluids were calculated from the new equation of state...
متن کاملVariational Monte Carlo calculation of dynamic multipole polarizabilities and van der Waals coefficients of the PsH system
The first three dynamic multipole polarizabilities for the ground state of hydrogen, helium, hydride ion, and positronium hydride PsH have been computed using the variational Monte Carlo ~VMC! method and explicitly correlated wave functions. Results for the static dipole polarizability by means of the diffusion Monte Carlo method and the finite field approach show the VMC results to be quite ac...
متن کاملDetermination of the Second Virial Coefficient for Binary Mixtures of Ar with CH4 and CO using Van der Waals and Dieterici Models
In this paper, we calculate the second virial coefficient for binary mixtures of Ar with CH4 and CO in order to evaluate the performance of equations of state (EOSs). The investigated EOSs are van der Waals (vdW), Redlich-Kwong (RK), Peng-Robinson (PR), Carnahan-Starling–van der Waals (CS-vdW) and Guggenheim-van der Waals (G-vdW) based on van der Waals model. In our work, we also use Dieterici ...
