Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theoretical methods of quantum chemistry have matured to the point that accurate predictions can be made and experiments can be understood for a wide range of important gas-phase phenomena. A large part of this success can be attributed to the maturation of hierarchies of approximation, which allow one to approach very high accuracy, provided that sufficient computational resources are available. Until recently, these hierarchies have not been available in condensed-phase chemistry, but recent advances in the field have now led to a group of methods that are capable of reaching this goal. Accurate Condensed-Phase Quantum Chemistry addresses these new methods and the problems to which they can be applied. The book begins with an overview of periodic treatments of electron correlation, with an emphasis on the algorithmic features responsible for their computational efficiency. The first section of the book: Describes the Laplace-transform approach to periodic second-order perturbation theory (MP2) Examines local and density fitted schemes for MP2 in crystalline systems Presents test calculations for a variety of systems with small and medium-sized unit cells The next section focuses on methods based on treatment of the periodic solid in terms of fragments. This part of the book: Explores the incremental many-body scheme for electron correlation in solids, and describes progress towards metals and molecules on surfaces Describes the hierarchical method as an alternative fragment-based approach to electron correlation in crystalline solids, using conventional molecular electronic structure methods Examines electrostatically embedded many-body expansion for large systems, with an emphasis on molecular clusters and molecular liquids Explores delocalized and localized orbital approaches to the electronic structures of periodic and non-periodic solids Lastly, the book describes a practical method by which conventional molecular electronic structure theory can be applied to molecular liquids and solids. Along with the methodology, it presents results on small to medium water clusters as well as on liquid water.

Book excerpt: This book is meant to provide a window on the rapidly growing body of theoretical studies of condensed phase chemistry. A brief perusal of physical chemistry journals in the early to mid 1980’s will find a large number of theor- ical papers devoted to 3-body gas phase chemical reaction dynamics. The recent history of theoretical chemistry has seen an explosion of progress in the devel- ment of methods to study similar properties of systems with Avogadro’s number of particles. While the physical properties of condensed phase systems have long been principle targets of statistical mechanics, microscopic dynamic theories that start from detailed interaction potentials and build to first principles predictions of properties are now maturing at an extraordinary rate. The techniques in use range from classical studies of new Generalized Langevin Equations, semicl- sical studies for non-adiabatic chemical reactions in condensed phase, mixed quantum classical studies of biological systems, to fully quantum studies of m- els of condensed phase environments. These techniques have become sufficiently sophisticated, that theoretical prediction of behavior in actual condensed phase environments is now possible. and in some cases, theory is driving development in experiment. The authors and chapters in this book have been chosen to represent a wide variety in the current approaches to the theoretical chemistry of condensed phase systems. I have attempted a number of groupings of the chapters, but the - versity of the work always seems to frustrate entirely consistent grouping.

Book excerpt: The use of quantum chemistry for the quantitative prediction of molecular properties has long been frustrated by the technical difficulty of carrying out the needed computations. In the last decade there have been substantial advances in the formalism and computer hardware needed to carry out accurate calculations of molecular properties efficiently. These advances have been sufficient to make quantum chemical calculations a reliable tool for the quantitative interpretation of chemical phenomena and a guide to laboratory experiments. However, the success of these recent developments is not well known outside the community of practitioners. In order to make the larger community of chemical physicists aware of the current state of the subject, this self-contained volume of Advances in Chemical Physics surveys a number of the recent accomplishments in computational quantum chemistry. Supplemented with more than 150 illustrations, this volume provides evaluations of a broad range of methods, including: Quantum Monte Carlo methods in chemistry Monte Carlo methods for real-time path integration The Redfield equation in condensed-phase quantum dynamics Multiconfigurational perturbation theory—applications in electronic spectroscopy Electronic structure calculations for molecules containing transition metals And more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book represents an effort to illustrate the breadth and quality of theoretical chemistry research developed at the Universidad Autónoma del Estado de Morelos(UAEMor) in Cuernavaca, México. The reader will find that the contents covered in eight chapters are heterogeneous in their subject matter but, on the other hand, they encompass a wide variety of topics of current research interest in the theoretical chemistry community. The chapters have been ordered from the gas phase, passing to properties of small clusters and liquid solutions, finally leading to solid state studies. The first three chapters deal with small but challenging molecular systems, use of state of the art methodology in their description and a detailed comparison with recent high quality experimental information. Even though the emphasis is on a quantitative description, which challenges contemporary experiments, often new qualitative insights are obtained from these studies which help in the interpretation of previous experimental data and suggest new directions for future work. The next three chapters are devoted to the theoretical description of solvation effects, they go from a microscopic analysis of hydration to an account of the thermodynamical and structural properties of liquid solutions. Starting with detailed studies of protonated water clusters of increasing size, which rely on semiempirical electronic structure calculations, they provide a bridge with the previous chapters, then going to studies of solvation effects for larger solutes using a combination of ab initio based intermolecular potentials together with Monte Carlo simulations as a means to improve models based on the properties of the cavity around the solute and ending with a study of how to improve models that treat the solvent as a continuum by including a microscopic description of the solvent through the use of a lattice around the solute with points of adjustable polarizability. The book closes with two methodologically oriented studies on solid state theoretical chemistry. Both studies illustrate the fact that the development of ab initio methodology and its numerical implementation for the case of crystals is still a very active area of research which borrows some ideas from the more mature molecular electronic structure but has to tackle challenging problems which are inherent to the perfect crystal approach. This is the case in the first study of this section, in which the particular role of space symmetry in the computational implementation of the vibrational analysis in crystalline systems is highlighted. As regards the last chapter, it is devoted to develop a general way to perform variational procedures in crystalline systems in terms of Localized Wannier Functions, which provide a representation alternative to that of the usually considered Bloch Functions. The extension of the Boys localization scheme to periodic systems is used as an illustrating example of the general procedure. We believe that a common ground for all the chapters is the fact that the theoretical tools that are being developed and/or applied to describe a rich variety of chemical systems provide alternatives either in conceptual framework and new qualitative insights, computational efficiency or accuracy in quantitative comparisons with experiment, which go beyond the standard approaches. Most of the contributions include international collaborations which certainly add to the richness and quality of this book and I am sure the local authors will continue to benefit from such collaborations. It is our hope that the current volume will serve as a useful introduction to current research in theoretical chemistry for graduate students and post-doctoral associates but also as a reference for experts coming from the main areas of specialization in this field. The book can also be valuable for experimentalists since several of the book chapters address problems which are being analyzed both by experiment and theory.

Book excerpt: It is undoubtedly true that much of the progress in the quant~m theory of matter is due to the remarkable success of the independent particle model (IPM)--especially in describing ground states. However, the accurate experimental results of the last 10 years or so, on a variety of spectroscopic phenomena and chemical processes which involve the Excited State, and the related failure of the IPM to reproduce accurately--in many cases, even qualitatively--the observed data, have sent to theorists a clear message: There is need to create and/or apply general and useful approaches to the many-electron problem of the excited state which go beyond the IPM, treat electron correlation and relativity and explain or predict all relevant physical or chemical information with consistent accuracy. This book contains articles devoted mainly to some of the most important new developments in Quantum Chemistry concerning the theoretical foundations and the computational implementation of many-body approaches to the quantitative and detailed under standing of the electronic excited states of atoms, molecules and solids. Furthermore, it contains experimental and pheno menological articles on Photoelectron and Auger spectroscopy, Lifetime measurements and Organic Photochemistry. In combination or individually, these articles constitute a good description of some current theoretical and experimental work on the electronic structure and spectroscopy of atoms, molecules, polymers, surfaces, metal oxides and amorphous solids.

This book was released on 2011-01-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Predicting thermodynamic quantities for chemically realistic systems on the basis of atomistic calculations is still, even today, a nontrivial task. Nonetheless, accurate treatment of inter-particle interactions, in terms of quantum chemical first principles methods, is a prerequisite for many applications, because of the complexity of both reactants and solvents in modern molecular sciences. Currently, a straightforward calculation of thermodynamic properties from these methods is only possible for high-temperature and low- density systems. Although the enthalpy of a system can often be predicted to a good level of precision with this ideal gas approach, calculating the entropy contribution to the free energy is problematic, especially as the density of the system increases. This thesis contains a compact and coherent introduction of basic theoretical features. The foundations are then laid for the development of approaches suitable for calculation of condensed phase entropies on the basis of well-established quantum chemical methods. The main emphasis of this work is on realistic systems in solution, which is the most important environment for chemical synthesis. The presented results demonstrate how isolated molecular concepts typically employed in modern quantum chemistry can be extended for the accurate determination of thermodynamic properties by means of scale- transferring approaches.

Book excerpt: This book had its origins in lectures presented at EPFL, Lausanne, during two separate visits (the most recent being to IRRMA). The author is most grateful to Professors A. Baldereschi, R. Car, and A. Quattropani for making these visits possible, and for the splendidly stimulating environment provided. Professors S. Baroni and R. Resta also influenced considerably the presentation of material by constructive help and comments. Most importantly, Chapters 4 and 5 were originally prepared for a review article by Professor G. Senatore, then at Pavia and now in Trieste, and myself for Reviews of Modem Physics (1994). In the 'course of this collaboration, he has taught me a great deal, especially about quantum Monte Carlo procedures, and Chapter 5 is based directly on this review article. Also in Chapter 4, my original draft on Gutzwiller's method has been transformed by his deeper understanding; again this is reflected directly in Chapter 4; especially in the earlier sections. In addition to the above background, it is relevant here to point out that, as a backcloth for the present, largely "state of the art," account, there are two highly relevant earlier books: The Many-body Problem in Quantum Mechanics with W.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to convey to the worldwide scientific community the rapid and enthusiastic progress of state-of-the-art quantum chemistry. Quantum chemistry continues to grow with remarkable success particularly due to rapid progress in supercomputers. The usefulness of quantum chemistry is almost limitless. Its application covers not only physical chemistry but also organic and inorganic chemistry, physics, and life sciences. This book deals with all of these topics. Frontiers of Quantum Chemistry is closely related to the symposium of the same name held at Kwansei Gakuin University at Nishinomiya, Japan, in November 2015. The book's contributors, however, include not only invited speakers at the symposium but also many other distinguished scientists from wide areas of quantum chemistry around the world.
