Don t confuse the state wavefunction with a molecular orbital we might well want to build the state wavefunction, which describes all the 16 electrons, from molecular orbitals each of which describe a single electron. But the two are not the same. We would have to find some suitable one-electron wavefunctions and then combine them into a slater determinant in order to take account of the Pauli principle. [Pg.123]

We start by assuming for a conjugated molecule a fully-symmetrical arrangement of carbon nuclei as an unperturbed system. Electronic wavefunctions and the corresponding energies... [Pg.110]

The impurity interacts with the band structure of the host crystal, modifying it, and often introducing new levels. An analysis of the band structure provides information about the electronic states of the system. Charge densities, and spin densities in the case of spin-polarized calculations, provide additional insight into the electronic structure of the defect, bonding mechansims, the degree of localization, etc. Spin densities also provide a direct link with quantities measured in EPR or pSR, which probe the interaction between electronic wavefunctions and nuclear spins. First-principles spin-density-functional calculations have recently been shown to yield reliable values for isotropic and anisotropic hyperfine parameters for hydrogen or muonium in Si (Van de Walle, 1990) results will be discussed in Section IV.2. [Pg.609]

We restrict ourselves to the clamped-nucleus or Born-Oppenheimer approximation [30,31] because essentially all the work done to date on electron momentum densities has relied on it. Therefore we focus on purely electronic wavefunctions and the electron densities that they lead to. [Pg.305]

Here, F is a many-electron wavefunction and H is the so-called Hamiltonian operator (or more simply the Hamiltonian), which in atomic units is given by. [Pg.23]

T(l,2,...n) is the electronic wavefunction and explicitly is a function of the coordinates of all n electrons in this notation the coordinates of a given electron are symbolized by a single number. E is the total electronic energy of the molecule. [Pg.198]

An important feature of o-Ps in polymers is that these particles tire preferentially formed or trapped in holes or regions of low electron density. The annihilation rate of o-Ps is proportional to the overlap of the positron and the pick-off electron wavefunctions and therefore the lifetime of o-Ps will depend on the size of the hole. The relative number of o-Ps pick-off annihilations is related to the number of suitable free volume sites in the polymer [3]. [Pg.365]

The two-electron reduced density matrix is a considerably simpler quantity than the N-electron wavefunction and again, if the A -representability problem could be solved in a simple and systematic manner the two-matrix would offer possibilities for accurate treatment of very large systems. The natural expansion may be compared in form to the expansion of the electron density in terms of Kohn-Sham spin orbitals and it raises the question of the connection between the spin orbital space and the -electron space when working with reduced quantities, such as density matrices and the electron density. [Pg.42]

Under the Hartree-Fock (i.e., HF) approximation, the function of in variables for the solutions of the electronic Hamiltonian is reduced to n functions, which are referenced as molecular orbitals (MOs), each dependent on only three variables. Each MO describes the probability distribution of a single electron moving in the average field of all other electrons. Because of the requirements of the Pauli principle or antisymmetry with respect to the interchange of any two electrons, and indistinguishability of electrons, the HF theory is to approximate the many-electron wavefunction by an antisymmetrized product of one-electron wavefunctions and to determine these wavefunctions by a variational condition applied to the expected value of the Hamiltonian in the resulting one-electron equations,... [Pg.313]

The two-electron basis functions O0(Is2 Se) and 4>°(2p2 Se) can be expressed by the corresponding single-electron wavefunctions, and after some manipulations... [Pg.12]

Within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, the Schrodinger equation for a whole molecular system can be divided into two equations. The electronic Schrodinger equation needs to be solved separately for each different (fixed) set of positions for the nuclei making up the system and gives the electronic wavefunction and the electronic... [Pg.487]

The effective electronic Hamiltonian, /7eff, for the solute has already been introduced in the contribution by Tomasi. It describes the solute under the effect of the interactions with its environment and determines how these interactions affect the solute electronic wavefunction and properties. The corresponding effective Schrodinger equation reads... [Pg.82]

The Yim(6,(fi) functions are called spherical harmonics. They determine the angular character of the electronic wavefunction and will be of primary consideration in the treatment of directional bonding. [Pg.31]
