This paper calculates the potential energy curves of the 14 Λ-S and 49 Ω states, which come from the first three dissociation channels of the SiN- anion. These calculations are conducted using the valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction and the Davidson correction approach. Core-valence correlation and scalar relativistic corrections are taken into account. The po...

The recently introduced method of correlation energy extrapolation by intrinsic scaling (CEEIS) is used to calculate the nonrelativistic electron correlations in the valence shell of the F(2) molecule at 13 internuclear distances along the ground state potential energy curve from 1.14 A to 8 A, the equilibrium distance being 1.412 A. Using Dunning's correlation-consistent double-, triple-, and ...

Benchmark full configuration interaction and equation-of-motion coupled-cluster model with single and double substitutions for ionized systems (EOM-IP-CCSD) results are presented for prototypical charge transfer species. EOM-IP-CCSD describes these doublet systems based on the closed-shell reference and thus avoids the doublet instability problem. The studied quantities are associated with the ...

We present a general theory of atomistic dynamical response in surface probe microscopy when two solid surfaces move with respect to each other in close proximity, when atomic instabilities are likely to occur. These instabilities result in a bistable potential energy surface, leading to temperature dependent atomic scale topography and damping (dissipation) images. The theory is illustrated on...

Classical simulations of the reactions between HCO+/COH+ and hydrogen atoms, as well as their deuterated variants, have been carried out on an ab initio interpolated potential energy surface. The surface is constructed at the quadratic configuration interaction with single and double excitation level of ab initio calculation. At low energies we observe reaction channels associated with the isom...

The mechanism of S+O₄ (D(₂h)) reaction has been investigated at the B3LYP/6-311+G(3df) and CCSD levels on the singlet potential energy surface. One stable complex has been found for the S+O₄ (D(₂h)) reaction, IN1, on the singlet potential energy surface. For the title reaction, we obtained four kinds of products at the B3LYP level, which have enough thermodynamic stability. The results reveal t...

The singlet ground ((approximate)X(1)Sigma1+) and excited (1Sigma-,1Delta) states of HCP and HPC have been systematically investigated using ab initio molecular electronic structure theory. For the ground state, geometries of the two linear stationary points have been optimized and physical properties have been predicted utilizing restricted self-consistent field theory, coupled cluster theory ...

A globally accurate many-body expansion potential energy surface is reported for HCS(X2A') by fitting a wealth of accurate ab initio energies calculated at the multireference configuration interaction level using aug-cc-pVQZ and aug-cc-pV5Z basis sets via extrapolation to the complete basis set limit. The topographical features of the present potential energy surface are examined in detail and ...

We present wave packet calculations of total and state-to-state reaction probabilities and integral cross sections for the nonadiabatic dynamics of the O((3)P)+HF → F((2)P)+OH((2)Π) reaction at hyperthermal collision energies ranging from 1.2 to 2.4 eV. The validity of the centrifugal sudden approximation is discussed for the title reaction and a comprehensive investigation of the influence of ...

The local thermodynamics of a system with long-range interactions in d dimensions is studied using the mean-field approximation. Long-range interactions are introduced through pair interaction potentials that decay as a power law in the interparticle distance. We compute the local entropy, Helmholtz free energy, and grand potential per particle in the microcanonical, canonical, and grand canoni...
