Under certain conditions, the ionization of a molecule may create a superposition of electronic states, leading to ultrafast electron dynamics. If controlled, this motion could be used in attochemistry applications, but it has been shown that the decoheren ...
Exposing a molecule to an intense light pulse can create a nonstationary quantum state, thus launching correlated dynamics of electrons and nuclei. Although much had been achieved in the understanding of fundamental physics behind the electron-nuclear inte ...
Using a combination of high-level ab initio electronic structure methods with efficient on-the-fly semiclassical evaluation of nuclear dynamics, we performed a massive scan of small polyatomic molecules searching for a long-lasting oscillatory dynamics of ...
Simulating vibrationally resolved electronic spectra of anharmonic systems, especially those involving double-wellpotential energy surfaces, often requires expensive quantumdynamics methods. Here, we explore the applicability andlimitations of the recently ...
The explicit split-operator algorithm has been extensively used for solving not only linear but also nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equations. When applied to the nonlinear Gross–Pitaevskii equation, the method remains time-reversible, norm-conservin ...
Diabatization of the molecular Hamiltonian is a standard approach to remove the singularities of nonadiabatic couplings at conical intersections of adiabatic potential energy surfaces. In general, it is impossible to eliminate the nonadiabatic couplings en ...
Understanding light-induced processes in biological and human-made molecular systems is one of the main goals of physical chemistry. It has been known for years that the photoinduced dynamics of atomic nuclei can be studied by looking at the vibrational su ...
The explicit split-operator algorithm is often used for solving the linear and nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equations. However, when applied to certain nonlinear time-dependent Schrödinger equations, this algorithm loses time reversibility and seco ...
Tracing ultrafast processes induced by interaction of light with matter is often very challenging. In molecular systems, the initially created electronic coherence becomes damped by the slow nuclear rearrangement on a femtosecond timescale which makes real ...
Ehrenfest dynamics is a useful approximation for ab initio mixed quantum-classical molecular dynamics that can treat electronically nonadiabatic effects. Although a severe approximation to the exact solution of the molecular time-dependent Schrödinger equa ...
