The Time-dependent Born-oppenheimer Approximation
We explain why the conventional argument for deriving the time-dependent Born-Oppenheimer approximation is incomplete and review recent mathematical results, which clarify the situation and at the same time provide a systematic scheme for higher order corrections. We also present a new elementary derivation of the correct second-order time-dependent Born-Oppenheimer approximation and discuss as...
متن کاملThe diagonal Born±Oppenheimer correction to molecular dynamical properties
We examine the eect of the diagonal Born±Oppenheimer correction on dynamics in two simple systems ± the Hooke's atom in an external harmonic potential and the collinear hydrogen exchange reaction. The transmission probability for the Hooke's atom, calculated within the Born±Oppenheimer approximation, is simply shifted in energy with respect to the exact result, and this is corrected by the dia...
متن کاملMolecular scattering and Born-Oppenheimer approximation
In this paper, we study the scattering wave operators for a diatomic molecules by using the Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Assuming that the ratio h between the electronic and nuclear masses is small, we construct adiabatic wave operators that, under some non trapping conditions, approximate the two-cluster wave operators up to any powers of the parameter h.
متن کاملHow accurate is molecular dynamics?
Born-Oppenheimer dynamics is shown to provide an accurate approximation of time-independent Schrödinger observables for a molecular system with an electron spectral gap, in the limit of large ratio of nuclei and electron masses, without assuming that the nuclei are localized to vanishing domains. The derivation, based on a Hamiltonian system interpretation of the Schrödinger equation and stabil...

We consider the Born-Oppenheimer problem near conical intersection in two dimensions. For energies close to the crossing energy we describe the wave function near an isotropic crossing and show that it is related to generalized hypergeometric functions 0 F 3. This function is to a conical intersection what the Airy function is to a classical turning point. As an application we calculate the ano...
