Full multiple spawning, FMS

The full multiple spawning (FMS) method has been developed as a genuine quantum mechanical method based on semiclassical considerations. The FMS method can be seen as an extension of semiclassical methods that brings back quantum character to the nuclear motion. Indeed, the nuclear wave function is not reduced to a product of delta functions centered on the nuclear positions but retains a minimum uncertainty relationship. The nuclear wave function is expressed as a sum of Born-Oppenheimer states ...
