We have developed multi-dimensional constrained covariant density functional theories (MDC-CDFT) for finite nuclei in which the shape degrees of freedom \beta_{\lambda\mu} with even \mu, e.g., \beta_{20}, \beta_{22}, \beta_{30}, \beta_{32},…
We study the gas-surface dynamics of O2 at Ag(111) with the particular objective to unravel whether electronic non-adiabatic effects are contributing to the experimentally established inertness of the surface with respect to oxygen uptake.…
We demonstrate that, rather than resorting to high-cost dynamic correlation methods, qualitative failures in excited-state potential energy surface predictions can often be remedied at no additional cost by ensuring that optimal molecular…
Combining classical electrodynamics and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, we develop a general and rigorous theoretical framework that describes the energetics of metal surfaces under high electric fields. We show that the…
Nonadiabatic molecular dynamics is an effective method for modeling nonradiative decay in electronically excited molecules. Its accuracy depends strongly on the quality of the potential energy surfaces, and its affordability for long…
We introduce and analyze numerical companion matrix methods for the reconstruction of hypersurfaces with crossings from smooth interpolants given unordered or, without loss of generality, value-sorted data. The problem is motivated by the…
Akin to the traditional quasi-classical trajectory method for investigating the dynamics on a single adiabatic potential energy surface for an elementary chemical reaction, we carry out the dynamics on a 2-state ab initio potential energy…
Nonadiabatic coupling between electrons and molecular motion at metal surfaces leads to energy dissipation and dynamical steering effects during chemical surface dynamics. We present a theoretical approach to the scattering of molecules…
As a first step to meet the challenge to calculate the electronic structure and total energy of charged states of atoms and molecules adsorbed on ultrathin-insulating films supported by a metallic substrate using density functional theory…
We investigate an extension of excited state mean-field theory in which the energy expression is augmented with density functional components in an effort to include the effects of weak electron correlations. The approach remains…
The Marcus theory expression for the rate of non-adiabatic electron transfer is widely used across a range of physical conditions. Although Marcus theory defines the reorganization energy classically, here we show that the reorganization…
We report a set of adiabatic potential energy surfaces (PESs) for diiodomethane, including the ground electronic state and all excited states accessible via single-photon absorption near 260 nm. Although constrained to four dimensions,…
Dissociative chemisorption is a key process in hydrogen-metal surface chemistry, where nonadiabatic effects due to low-lying electron-hole-pair excitations may affect reaction outcomes. Molecular dynamics with electronic friction…
A new methodology of simulating nonadiabatic dynamics using frozen-width Gaussian wavepackets within the moving crude adiabatic representation with the on-the-fly evaluation of electronic structure is presented. The main feature of the new…
In this contribution we present some results of potential energy surfaces of actinide and transfermium nuclei from multi-dimensional constrained relativistic mean field (MDC-RMF) models. Recently we developed multi-dimensional constrained…
Surface properties of mixtures of charged platelike colloids and salt in contact with a charged planar wall are studied within density functional theory. The particles are modeled by hard cuboids with their edges constrained to be parallel…
We find and analyze the exact time-dependent potential energy surface driving the proton motion for a model of cavity-induced suppression of proton-coupled electron-transfer. We show how, in contrast to the polaritonic surfaces, its…
We study the potential and the charge distribution across the interface of a plasma and a dielectric wall. For this purpose, the charge bound to the wall is modelled as a quasi-stationary electron surface layer which satisfies Poisson's…
We show that chemically-accurate potential energy surfaces (PESs) can be generated from quantum computers by measuring only the density along an adiabatic transition between different molecular geometries. In lieu of using phase estimation,…
Two- and three-dimensional electron gases with a uniform neutralizing background are studied at negative compressibility. Parametrized expressions for the dielectric function are used to access this strong-coupling regime, where the…
