Abstract

A generalization is presented here for a newly developed approach to ab initio molecular dynamics, where the density matrix is propagated with Gaussian orbitals. Including a tensorial fictitious mass facilitates the use of larger time steps for the dynamics process. A rigorous analysis of energy conservation is presented and used to control the deviation of the fictitious dynamics trajectory from the corresponding Born–Oppenheimer dynamics trajectory. These generalizations are tested for the case of the Cl−(H2O)25 cluster. It is found that, even with hydrogen atoms present in the system, no thermostats are necessary to control the exchange of energy between the nuclear and the fictitious electronic degrees of freedom.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
