Adiabatic Case

A novel treatment of non-adiabatic couplings is proposed. The derivation is based on a theorem by Hunter stating that the wave function of the complete system of electrons and nuclei can be written, without approximation, as a Born–Oppenheimer (BO)-type product of a nuclear wave function, X ( R ), and an electronic one, Φ R ( r ), which depends parametrically on the nuclear configuration R . From the variational principle, we deduce formally exact equations for Φ R ( r ) and X ( R ). The algebraic structure of the exact nuclear equation coincides with the corresponding one in the adiabatic approximation. The electronic equation, however, contains terms not appearing in the adiabatic case, which couple the electronic and the nuclear wave functions and account for the electron–nuclear correlation beyond the BO level. It is proposed that these terms can be incorporated using an optimized local effective potential.

We propose a Time-Dependent Multi-Determinant (TDMD) approach to the description of the time evolution of the nuclear wave functions. We use the Dirac variational principle to derive the equations of motion using as ansatz for the nuclear wave function a linear combination of Slater determinants. We prove explicitly that the norm and the energy of the wave function are conserved during the time evolution. This approach is a generalization of the time-dependent Hartree–Fock method to many Slater determinants. We apply this approach to a case study of 6 Li using the N3LO interaction renormalized to four major harmonic oscillator shells. We solve the TDMD equations of motion using Krylov subspace methods of Lanczos type. As an application, we discuss the isoscalar monopole strength function.
