Designing nanoscale electronic devices such as the currently manufactured nanoribbon field-effect transistors (NRFETs) requires advanced modeling tools capturing all relevant quantum mechanical effects. State-of-the-art approaches combine…

The computational investigation of photochemical processes often entails the calculation of excited state geometries, energies, and energy gradients. The nuclear-electronic orbital (NEO) approach treats specified nuclei, typically protons,…

Linear density response functions are calculated for symmetric nuclear matter of normal density by time-evolving two-time Green's functions in real time. Of particular interest is the effect of correlations. The system is therefore…

Experiments creating extreme states of matter almost invariably create non-equilibrium states. These are very interesting in their own right but need to be understood even if the ultimate goal is to probe high-pressure or high-temperature…

We apply the Nonequilibrium Green's Function (NEGF) formalism to the problem of a multi-terminal nanojunction subject to an arbitrary time-dependent bias. In particular, we show that taking a generic one-particle system Hamiltonian within…
