Interaction potential wave functions

The incoming states planar wave states sustained by the Rubidium atom. The collimators allow separation in space base states 10) and 20) propagate along channels 1 and 2 < i(x) and 02(x) are the scattered states at DS-1 and, as the source state is the same and we take identical slit interaction potentials, these functions differ only in space origin. After interaction with the laser beam the base states label from 1) to 10> are sufficient for discussing several possibilities... [Pg.91]

One starts with the Hamiltonian for a molecule H r, R) written out in terms of the electronic coordinates (r) and the nuclear displacement coordinates (R, this being a vector whose dimensionality is three times the number of nuclei) and containing the interaction potential V(r, R). Then, following the BO scheme, one can write the combined wave function [ (r, R) as a sum of an infinite number of terms... [Pg.145]

The quantum degrees of freedom are described by a wave function /) = (x, t). It obeys Schrodinger s equation with a parameterized coupling potential V which depends on the location q = q[t) of the classical particles. This location q t) is the solution of a classical Hamiltonian equation of motion in which the time-dependent potential arises from the expectation value of V with regard to tp. For simplicity of notation, we herein restrict the discussion to the case of only two interacting particles. Nevertheless, all the following considerations can be extended to arbitrary many particles or degrees of freedom. [Pg.397]

The quantity, V(R), the sum of the electronic energy Egjg. computed in a wave function calculation and the nuclear-nuclear coulomb interaction V(R,R), constitutes a potential energy surface having 3N independent variables (the coordinates R). The independent variables are the coordinates of the nuclei but having made the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, we can think of them as the coordinates of the atoms in a molecule. [Pg.164]

The metal cluster will be modeled as an infinitely deep spherical potential well with the represented by an infinitely high spherical barrier. Let us place this barrier in the center of the spherical cluster to simplify the calculations. The simple Schrodinger equation, containing only the interaction of the electrons with the static potential and the kinetic energy term and neglecting any electron-electron interaction, can then be solved analytically, the solutions for the radial wave functions being linear combinations of spherical Bessel and Neumann functions. [Pg.178]

One area where the concept of atomic charges is deeply rooted is force field methods (Chapter 2). A significant part of the non-bonded interaction between polar molecules is described in terms of electrostatic interactions between fragments having an internal asymmetry in the electron distribution. The fundamental interaction is between the Electrostatic Potential (ESP) generated by one molecule (or fraction of) and the charged particles of another. The electrostatic potential at position r is given as a sum of contributions from the nuclei and the electronic wave function. [Pg.220]

The correlation of electron motion in molecular systems is responsible for many important effects, but its theoretical treatment has proved to be very difficult. Thus many quantum valence calculations use wave functions which are adjusted to optimize kinetic energy effects and the potential energy of interaction of nuclei and electrons but which do not adequately allow for electron correlation and hence yield excessive electron repulsion energy. This problem may be subdivided into cases of overlapping and nonoverlapping electron distributions. Both are very important but we shall concern ourselves here with only the nonoverlapping case. [Pg.59]

One way in which we can solve the problem of propagating the wave function forward in time in the presence of the laser field is to utilize the above knowledge. In order to solve the time-dependent Schrodinger equation, we normally divide the time period into small time intervals. Within each of these intervals we assume that the electric field and the time-dependent interaction potential is constant. The matrix elements of the interaction potential in the basis of the zeroth-order eigenfunctions y i Vij = (t t T(e(t)) / ) are then evaluated and we can use an eigenvector routine to compute the eigenvectors, = S) ... [Pg.70]

Since the Fock operator is a effective one-electron operator, equation (1-29) describes a system of N electrons which do not interact among themselves but experience an effective potential VHF. In other words, the Slater determinant is the exact wave function of N noninteracting particles moving in the field of the effective potential VHF.5 It will not take long before we will meet again the idea of non-interacting systems in the discussion of the Kohn-Sham approach to density functional theory. [Pg.30]

To understand how Kohn and Sham tackled this problem, we go back to the discussion of the Hartree-Fock scheme in Chapter 1. There, our wave function was a single Slater determinant SD constructed from N spin orbitals. While the Slater determinant enters the HF method as the approximation to the true N-electron wave function, we showed in Section 1.3 that 4>sd can also be looked upon as the exact wave function of a fictitious system of N non-interacting electrons (that is electrons which behave as uncharged fermions and therefore do not interact with each other via Coulomb repulsion), moving in the elfective potential VHF. For this type of wave function the kinetic energy can be exactly expressed as... [Pg.59]
