Direct location of the minimum point on intersection seams of potential energy surfaces with equation-of-motion coupled-cluster methods
نویسنده
چکیده
An implementation of the projected gradient method for locating the minimum energy crossing point between electronic states of different symmetry/multiplicity within the equation-of-motion coupled-cluster family of methods is reported. The method is applied to characterize the intersections between electronic states in N3 , NO2, and para-benzyne using the excitation energies, ionization potential, and spin-flip variants of the equationof-motion coupled-cluster methods. The performance of the algorithm is discussed and recommendations for improving the convergence in problematic situations are given.

Can a single-reference approach provide a balanced description of ground and excited states? A comparison of the completely renormalized equation-of-motion coupled-cluster method with multireference quasidegenerate perturbation theory near a conical intersection and along a photodissociation coordinate in ammonia.
We calculated the two lowest electronically adiabatic potential energy surfaces of ammonia in the region of the conical intersection and at a sequence of geometries along which one of the N-H bonds is broken. We employed both a multireference (MR) method and a single-reference (SR) method. The MR calculations are based on multiconfiguration quasidegenerate perturbation theory (MC-QDPT) with a 6...
متن کاملPhase transition of the dry friction between crystalline surfaces induced by normal load
A major source of energy dissipation and surface wear is the kinetic friction at the interfaces of sliding bodies. Traditionally, on a macroscopic scale, this undesirable effect is reduced with lubricating the surfaces by introducing oil into their interface. An interesting phenomenon, called superlubricity, has been reported on a nanometer scale where dry (without lubricant oil) fruition and w...
متن کاملRobot Motion Vision Pait I: Theory
A direct method called fixation is introduced for solving the general motion vision problem, arbitrary motion relative to an arbitrary environment. This method results in a linear constraint equation which explicitly expresses the rotational velocity in terms of the translational velocity. The combination of this constraint equation with the Brightness-Change Constraint Equation solves the gene...
متن کاملAnalytical Solution for Two-Dimensional Coupled Thermoelastodynamics in a Cylinder
An infinitely long hollow cylinder containing isotropic linear elastic material is considered under the effect of arbitrary boundary stress and thermal condition. The two-dimensional coupled thermoelastodynamic PDEs are specified based on equations of motion and energy equation, which are uncoupled using Nowacki potential functions. The Laplace integral transform and Bessel-Fourier series are u...
متن کاملNew Algorithms for Optimizing and Linking Conical Intersection Points.
In this paper we present two new algorithms to study the extended nature of the crossing seam between electronic potential energy surfaces. The first algorithm is designed to optimize conical intersection geometries: both minima and saddle points. In addition, this method will optimize conical intersection geometries using arbitrary geometrical constraints. We demonstrate its potential on diff...
