Polarizable molecular dynamics in a polarizable continuum solvent.
We present, for the first time, scalable polarizable molecular dynamics (MD) simulations within a polarizable continuum solvent with molecular shape cavities and exact solution of the mutual polarization. The key ingredients are a very efficient algorithm for solving the equations associated with the polarizable continuum, in particular, the domain decomposition Conductor-like Screening Model (...
متن کاملSolvation and reorganization energies in polarizable molecular and continuum solvents
The solvation free energy difference, DG , and reorganization energy, l, of the electronic transition between the ground and first excited state of formaldehyde are investigated as a function of the solvent electronic polarizability in aqueous solution. Solvent shifts are difficult to measure experimentally for formaldehyde due to oligomer formation; shifts for acetone, which have been measured...
متن کاملSolvent-Induced Shift of Spectral Lines in Polar-Polarizable Solvents.
Solvent-induced shift of optical transition lines is traditionally described by the Lippert-McRae equation given in terms of the Onsager theory for dipole solvation. It splits the overall shift into the equilibrium solvation by induced dipoles and the reaction field by the permanent dipoles in equilibrium with the chromophore in the ground state. We have reconsidered this classical problem from...
متن کاملWavelet formulation of the polarizable continuum model
The first implementation of a wavelet discretization of the Integral Equation Formalism (IEF) for the Polarizable Continuum Model (PCM) is presented here. The method is based on the application of a general purpose wavelet solver on the cavity boundary to solve the integral equations of the IEF-PCM problem. Wavelet methods provide attractive properties for the solution of the electrostatic prob...
متن کاملCan cancer researchers accurately judge whether preclinical reports will reproduce?
There is vigorous debate about the reproducibility of research findings in cancer biology. Whether scientists can accurately assess which experiments will reproduce original findings is important to determining the pace at which science self-corrects. We collected forecasts from basic and preclinical cancer researchers on the first 6 replication studies conducted by the Reproducibility Project:...
