Velocity autocorrelation function , mode dynamics

The barrier crossing dynamics is determined by the memory kernel K(c), and Russell and Sceats suggested that it be modeled such that it gave the same velocity autocorrelation function in the vicinity of the outer minimum Rq of K(R) as exjjected from a superposition of the damp>ed conformational normal modes of the polymer, j,J = 1, N — 1. The potential P(R) is expanded about Rq with a force constant ficoi, where coq is defined by an integral such as Eq. (7.20), but with the range of integration extended to infinity. The result is that... [Pg.458]

Consider Eq. (6.84). This result was obtained for a harmonic system of identical and equivalent atoms. We could however reverse our reasoning and define a vibrational spectrum for a dense atomic system from the velocity autocorrelation function according to Eq. (6.84). Since this function can be computed for all systems, including liquids and disordered solids, we may use (6.84) as a definition of a spectrum that may be interpreted as density of modes fimction for such media. We can then use it in expressions such as (4.33), and (6.92). Is this approach to dynamics in condensed phases any good ... [Pg.215]

These ring collision events are now a familiar part of the kinetic theory description of dynamic processes in simple dense fluids. A brief comparison of the theory for the velocity autocorrelation function with that for the chemically reacting fluid will help motivate our description. Recent developments in the theory of the velocity autocorrelation function have arisen out of an attempt to understand the slow t power law decay observed by Alder and Wainwright in a computer simulation of a dense hard-sphere fluid. This work also showed that the translational motion of a small hard sphere in a fluid of similar hard spheres has a significant collective (hydro-dynamic) component. On the theoretical side, this type of behavior was discussed from the kinetic theory point of view in terms of the ring collision events described above and provided a microscopic basis for the introduction of collective effects. In addition, it was shown that mode... [Pg.107]

The dynamics of different modes of molecular librations (hindered rotations) and intramolecular vibrations in supercritical water can now be analyzed in terms of velocity autocorrelation functions for the corresponding projections (Eqns. 22-27) (Kalinichev and Heinzinger 1992, 1995 Kalinichev 1993). The velocity autocorrelation functions calculated for the quantities Qi (Eqns. 25-27) are shown in Figure 19 for two extreme cases of high-density and low-density supercritical water. The Fourier transforms of these functions result in the spectral densities of the corresponding vibrational modes. They are shown in Figure 20 for the supercritical thermodynamic states listed in Table 5. [Pg.117]

At T 0 the sharp lines corresponding to the harmonic modes are broadened by anharmonic effects until, at high temperature, the simple relationship between vibrational density of states and dynamical matrix is lost. In this regime, and especially for large aggregates, MD is the most suitable tool to compute the vibrational spectrum. Standard linear response theory within classical statistical mechanics shows that the spectrum f(co) is given by the Fourier transform of the velocity-velocity autocorrelation function... [Pg.91]
