Machine learning has transformed the field of atomistic simulations by enabling the development of interatomic potentials that are computationally efficient and highly accurate. These advances have opened the door to modeling molecular…
We introduce force-kernel extended-system adaptive biasing force (FK-eABF), a force-based kernel reformulation of eABF that replaces the histogram-based mean-force accumulator of conventional eABF with a sparse population of Gaussian…
Contributions from connected quintuple excitations in coupled cluster theory can reach the 0.5 kcal/mol range, important enough to matter in accurate computational thermochemistry, yet the very steep $\propto N^{12}$ CPU time scaling…
We propose a mixed quantum-classical hydrodynamic framework to model short-time inertial effects in the non-adiabatic evolution of a quantum solute coupled to a classical polar solvent. Drawing upon the work of Burghardt and Bagchi [Chem.…
Density-functional theory (DFT) has become the workhorse of modern computational chemistry, with dispersion corrections such as the exchange-hole dipole moment (XDM) model playing a key role in high-accuracy modelling of large-scale…
The accuracy of one-shot $G_0W_0$ and Bethe-Salpeter equation (BSE) calculations depends strongly on the underlying starting-point eigensystem, which is commonly obtained from a mean-field density-functional approximation. Range-separated…
Modern process simulators enable detailed process design, simulation, and optimization; however, constructing and interpreting simulations is time-consuming and requires expert knowledge. This limits early exploration by inexperienced…
The computational design of heteroatom-doped organic dyes for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) remains challenging, as predictive methods must accurately describe long-range charge-transfer (CT) excitations while remaining computationally…
The GMTKN55 data set is a collection of standard benchmarks used in molecular quantum chemistry that spans small- and large-molecule thermochemistry, reaction barriers, and non-covalent interactions. Herein, we identify a flaw in the…
Time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) is a standard approach for calculating optical excitations of molecules and solids, while ensemble DFT (EDFT) is a promising alternative under development. We introduce ensemble TDDFT…
We present an information-theoretic assessment of atomic and molecular densities in the ground state and under a range of physical scenarios--excitation, confinement, and ensemblization. Comparisons across densities obtained from…
Scientific workflows in computational chemistry and materials science typically involve multiple interdependent steps, such as model preparation, system construction, simulation execution, and data analysis, that researchers have refined…
The double electron attachment (DEA) and double ionization potential (DIP) equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOMCC) methods including up to 4-particle-2-hole (4$p$-2$h$) and 4-hole-2-particle (4$h$-2$p$) excitations on top of…
We present a computational investigation of the parity-violating (PV) contributions to the vibrational transitions and nuclear magnetic resonance shieldings of helical osmocene. A number of promising transitions within the spectral window…
A partial-active-space (PAS) multi-state (MS) multi-reference second-order perturbation theory (MRPT2) for the electronic structure of strongly correlated systems of electrons, dubbed PASPT2, is formulated by linearizing the intermediate…
A complex of platinum and the tetra-coordinate chelating ligand, R,R'-6,6'-dimethyl-N,N'-bis(2'-pyridine-carboxamide)-1-cyclohexane (Me-BPCH) is investigated as a potential candidate for measurement of parity violation (PV) in chiral…
We predict an anomalous thermally activated superradiance in molecular aggregates within polaritonic environments. In contrast to free space, the collective emission is enhanced when either the exciton-phonon coupling or the temperature…
In this study, we unveil an eccentric superradiance phenomenon in molecular aggregates coupled to surface plasmon polaritons. Through the quantization of electromagnetic fields in media, we demonstrate that superradiance can be…
We extend the CCSDTQ implementation in CFOUR to UHF and ROHF references and demonstrate its efficiency. We apply it to basis set convergence of post-CCSDT(Q) corrections for the W4-08 thermochemical dataset. Convergence of…
We present an accelerated ``on-the-fly'' coupled-cluster path-integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) method for finite-temperature simulations in which electron correlation and nuclear quantum effects are treated simultaneously. The approach is…
