This way, it is obvious that at the conceptual (quantum fundamental) level one obtained that (Putz, 2011) ... [Pg.116]

Once again a crystal is a compound of atoms or assemblies of atoms ordered in space this because the atoms and the atomic orbital are the quantum fundament of the compounds of the super-atomic (yet nano-) matter. [Pg.305]

As we shall see, in molecules as well as atoms, the interplay between the quantum description of the internal motions and the corresponding classical analogue is a constant theme. However, when referring to the internal motions of molecules, we will be speaking, loosely, of the motion of the atoms in the molecule, rather than of the fiindamental constituents, the electrons and nuclei. This is an extremely fundamental point to which we now turn. [Pg.55]

Both the BO dynamics and Gaussian wavepacket methods described above in Section n separate the nuclear and electronic motion at the outset, and use the concept of potential energy surfaces. In what is generally known as the Ehrenfest dynamics method, the picture is still of semiclassical nuclei and quantum mechanical electrons, but in a fundamentally different approach the electronic wave function is propagated at the same time as the pseudoparticles. These are driven by standard classical equations of motion, with the force provided by an instantaneous potential energy function... [Pg.290]

Such a fundamental theory does exist for chemistry quantum mechanics. The dependence of the property of a compound on its three-dimensional structure is given by the Schrodinger equation. Great progress has been made both in the de-... [Pg.6]

We shall treat coupling of modes of motion in some detail because there are fundamental mechanical and mathematical topics involved that will be useful to us in both MM and quantum mechanical calculations. In the tieatment of coupled haiinonic oscillators, matrix diagonalization and normal coordinates are encountered in a simple form. [Pg.131]

The Seetion entitled The BasiC ToolS Of Quantum Mechanics treats the fundamental postulates of quantum meehanies and several applieations to exaetly soluble model problems. These problems inelude the eonventional partiele-in-a-box (in one and more dimensions), rigid-rotor, harmonie oseillator, and one-eleetron hydrogenie atomie orbitals. The eoneept of the Bom-Oppenheimer separation of eleetronie and vibration-rotation motions is introdueed here. Moreover, the vibrational and rotational energies, states, and wavefunetions of diatomie, linear polyatomie and non-linear polyatomie moleeules are diseussed here at an introduetory level. This seetion also introduees the variational method and perturbation theory as tools that are used to deal with problems that ean not be solved exaetly. [Pg.2]

By learning the solutions of the Schrodinger equation for a few model systems, the student can better appreciate the treatment of the fundamental postulates of quantum mechanics as well as their relation to experimental measurement because the wavefunctions of the known model problems can be used to illustrate. [Pg.7]

The strueture of quantum meehanies (QM) relates the wavefunetion E and operators F to the real world in whieh experimental measurements are performed through a set of rules (Dirae s text is an exeellent souree of reading eoneeming the historieal development of these fundamentals). Some of these rules have already been introdueed above. Here, they are presented in total as follows ... [Pg.39]

It is conventional to represent integrals that oeeur in quantum meehanies in a notation that is independent of the number of eoordinates involved. This is done beeause the fundamental strueture of quantum ehemistry applies to all atoms and moleeules, regardless of how many eleetronie and atom-eenter eoordinates arise. The most eommonly used notation, whieh is referred to as Dirae or bra-kef notation, ean be summarized as follows ... [Pg.564]

The theory and methods discussed in this book are HyperChem s two fundamental force-energy-generator modules one for molecular mechanics and one for quantum mechanics. Molecular mechanics and quantum mechanics are described in subsequent chapters as modules capable of delivering an energy, or derivatives of the energy. Other chapters describe the uses for these energies and their derivatives in more generic parts of HyperChem. [Pg.155]

Quantum mechanical calculations generally have only one carbon atom type, compared with the many types of carbon atoms associated with a molecular mechanics force field like AMBER. Therefore, the number of quantum mechanics parameters needed for all possible molecules is much smaller. In principle, very accurate quantum mechanical calculations need no parameters at all, except fundamental constants such as the speed of light, etc. [Pg.215]

Liquid Helium-4. Quantum mechanics defines two fundamentally different types of particles bosons, which have no unpaired quantum spins, and fermions, which do have unpaired spins. Bosons are governed by Bose-Einstein statistics which, at sufficiently low temperatures, allow the particles to coUect into a low energy quantum level, the so-called Bose-Einstein condensation. Fermions, which include electrons, protons, and neutrons, are governed by Fermi-DHac statistics which forbid any two particles to occupy exactly the same quantum state and thus forbid any analogue of Bose-Einstein condensation. Atoms may be thought of as assembHes of fermions only, but can behave as either fermions or bosons. If the total number of electrons, protons, and neutrons is odd, the atom is a fermion if it is even, the atom is a boson. [Pg.7]

A number of attempts have been made to quairtify this model by means of fundamental quantum-mechanical calculations on the free electron transport in metals and alloys, but at dre present time, the qualitative data presented in Table 5.1 will suffice to indicate the U eirds. [Pg.154]

Basicity and acidity are fundamental and familiar concepts in chemistry and biochemistry. Quantum chemistry has provided a theoretical understanding of the phenomena as far as the gas phase in concerned. However, it is known that in solution reactivity is seriously affected by solvents. One example of such a well-known phenomenon is that the basicity... [Pg.428]

It is a fundamental principle of quantum mechanics that electrons bound in an atom can have only discrete energy values. Thus, when an electron strikes an atom its electrons can absorb energy from the incident electron in specific, discrete amounts. As a result the scattered incident electron can lose energy only in specific amounts. In EELS an incident electron beam of energy Eq bombards an atom or collection of atoms. After the interaction the energy loss E of the scattered electron beam is measured. Since the electronic energy states of different elements, and of a single element in different chemical environments, are unique, the emitted beam will contain information about the composition and chemistry of the specimen. [Pg.325]
