The implementation of an efficient self-consistent field (SCF) method including both scalar relativistic effects and spin-orbit interaction in density functional theory (DFT) is presented. We make use of Gaussian-type orbitals (GTOs) and…
The semistochastic heat-bath configuration interaction (SHCI) method is a selected configuration interaction plus perturbation theory method that has provided near-full configuration interaction (FCI) levels of accuracy for many systems…
The dynamics of water in electrolyte solutions exhibits a striking, ion-specific anomaly: the diffusion coefficient of water is enhanced relative to the neat liquid in chaotropic CsI solutions, yet suppressed in kosmotropic NaCl solutions.…
A few self-consistent schemes to solve the Hedin equations are presented. They include vertex corrections of different complexity. Commonly used quasiparticle approximation for the Green function and static approximation for the screened…
A Hydrogen atom immersed in a finite jellium sphere is solved using variational quantum Monte Carlo (VQMC). The same system is also solved using density functional theory (DFT), in both the local spin density (LSDA) and self-interaction…
Complete dissociation dynamics of low-energy electron attachment to carbon disulfide have been studied using the velocity slice imaging (VSI) technique. The ion yields of S- and CS- fragment ions as the function of incident electron energy…
The non-local van der Waals density functional (vdW-DF) of Dion et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 92, 246401 (2004)] is a very promising scheme for the efficient treatment of dispersion bonded systems. We show here that the accuracy of vdW-DF can be…
In this work, the solvation and electronic structure of the aqueous chloride ion solution was investigated using Density Functional Theory (DFT) based \textit{ab initio} molecular dynamics (AIMD). From an analysis of radial distribution…
The many-body expansion (MBE) of energies of molecular clusters or solids offers a way to detect and analyze errors of theoretical methods that could go unnoticed if only the total energy of the system was considered. In this regard, the…
In this paper, we report on a correctly scaling novel coupled cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) implementation for arbitrary high-spin open-shell states. The chosen cluster operator is completely spin-free, i.e. employs spatial…
The improved photocatalytic water splitting using 2D materials has technological importance for economically viable renewable energy. The present study focuses on the effect of uniaxial, biaxial, and vertical strain on the energy gap and…
Despite the importance of ligand dissociation energies for computational chemistry, obtaining accurate ab initio reference data is difficult and density-functional methods of uncertain reliability are chosen for feasibility reasons. Here,…
Numerous numerical studies have shown that geminal-based methods are a promising direction to model strongly correlated systems with low computational costs. Several strategies have been introduced to capture the missing dynamical…
We apply a recently introduced model for an independent-atom-like calculation of ion-impact electron transfer and ionization cross sections to proton collisions from water, neon, and carbon clusters. The model is based on a geometrical…
The Heyd-Scuseria-Ernzerhof (HSE) hybrid functional has become a widely used tool for theoretical calculations of point defects in semiconductors. It generally offers a satisfactory qualitative description of defect properties, including…
Pair atomic density fitting (PADF) is a promising strategy to reduce the scaling with system size of quantum chemical methods for the calculation of the correlation energy like the direct random phase approximation (RPA) or second-order…
We study an interacting electron gas in a quantum wire within the Hartree-Fock random phase approximation. Vertex corrections to the electron spin polarizability due to the electronic exchange interaction are important giving rise to…
A symmetrical binary, A+B Lennard-Jones mixture is studied by a combination of semi-grandcanonical Monte Carlo (SGMC) and Molecular Dynamics (MD) methods near a liquid-liquid critical temperature $T_c$. Choosing equal chemical potentials…
The electronic structures of Mn-doped zincblende GaAs and wurtzite GaN are calculated using both standard local-density functional theory (LSDA), and a novel pseudopotential self-interaction-corrected approach (pseudo-SIC), able to account…
Self-interactions (SIs) are a major problem in density functional approximations and the source of serious divergence from experimental results. Here, we propose to optimize density functional total energies in terms of the effective local…
