    Notes: Inner-valence ionized states of weakly bound systems like van der Waals clusters can efficiently decay by electron emission. The mechanism of the decay, which does not occur in the isolated monomer units constituting the clusters has recently been shown to be of intermolecular/interatomic nature. This intermolecular/interatomic Coulombic decay (ICD) mechanism prevails in many systems ranging from hydrogen-bonded molecular clusters to atomic rare gas clusters. In the present paper we extend our previous studies to weakly bound heteroclusters built up of monomer units of largely differing energetics. It is shown that, as soon as the double ionization potential of a monomer unit is lower in energy than the ionization potential of the initially created inner-valence vacancy on a neighboring monomer unit, an additional electronic decay process can take place. In contrast to the ICD mechanism, which involves an efficient energy transfer between the monomer units, this second process is essentially based on an electron transfer process. It is therefore termed electron-transfer mediated decay (ETMD). We have analyzed the mechanisms of the electronic decay processes taking place following inner-valence ionization in weakly bound heteroclusters in an exemplary study of the NeAr dimer. The involved electronic states have been calculated using ab initio Green's function techniques. The lifetime of the inner-valence Ne(2s−1)Ar vacancy has been estimated and partitioned according to the contributions of the two decay channels based on a perturbation-theoretical description of the decay process. As a result, the lifetime of the inner-valence resonance state is estimated to be of the order of 10–100 fs, the specific value strongly depending on the internuclear separation of the monomers. The ICD process is shown to be by far the dominant decay channel at distances corresponding to bound states of the dimer. With decreasing internuclear separation the ratio of the ETMD and ICD decay widths quickly increases over several orders of magnitude. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Calculating electronic resonance states in molecules is a serious challenge to theory, because the treatment of both the scattering and the many-electron problem is a formidable task. A very promising approach, known as CAP/CI, consists of the combination of a complex absorbing potential with the method of configuration interaction. In this paper we propose the combination of three distinct computational techniques in order to boost the performance of CAP/CI. A complex absorbing potential that can be adjusted flexibly to the geometry of the molecular scattering target is presented and its representation in a Gaussian basis set is discussed. To handle the large-scale complex symmetric eigenvalue problem arising in CAP/CI, a subspace projection method is employed and its validity is shown. We advocate the use of parallel filter diagonalization for calculating the eigenvectors required in the projection step. The proposed techniques are applied to determine the lifetime of an autoionizing, inner-valence excited state of Ne2+. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Advances in the time propagation of multidimensional wave packets are exploited to present the A-band photodissociation dynamics of methyl iodide for five active vibrational modes on the three relevant excited ab initio potential surfaces. The five modes considered represent all of the experimentally observed dynamical activity. The only modes neglected are the asymmetric C–H stretch and the asymmetric deformation of the methyl group. The kinetic energy operator corresponding to these five degrees of freedom is derived. The fully quantum mechanical calculation was implemented upon grids using 2880 distinct time-dependent configurations, determined by the multiconfigurational time-dependent Hartree algorithm, for each electronic state. All of the currently known experimental results regarding the umbrella vibration, symmetric C–H stretching vibration, perpendicular rotation, and parallel rotation of the photodissociated methyl radical fragment are well reproduced. The full wavelength dependence of all of these quantities is determined. The wavelength dependence of the energy deposited into translational, vibrational, and rotational motion is also given. The time evolution of the modes is presented in the context of correlated motion and its effect upon the dissociative process. Many of the details of the dynamics inherent to the conically intersecting nature of the excited surfaces is delineated. In particular it is shown that the Jahn–Teller distortion of the 1Q1 state is irrelevant in contributing to the perpendicular character of resonance Raman depolarization ratios. Results are compared and contrasted to previous calculations employing the collinear pseudotriatomic model with optimized empirical surfaces or the bent pseudotriatomic model with the same ab initio surfaces.

    Notes: Various approximations are used currently to evaluate the static part Σ(∞) of the self-energy or optical potential in molecular Green's function calculations. Since its expansion is ruled out by the linked-cluster theorem, one generally assumes a size-intensive behavior of Σ(∞) in the thermodynamic limit of an infinite system. A detailed analysis of this size-dependence property is conducted using the formulation of crystalline orbitals (CO) for stereoregular polymers. In spite of the linked-cluster theorem, this study provides evidence for a logarithmic divergence with respect to the size of a chain for some forms of Σ(∞), computed with common approximation schemes. This is the direct outcome of the long-range character of the Coulombic interaction and can be related to a violation in the number of particles within the system. A proper size-intensive behavior implies an exact cancellation of the logarithmically divergent behavior of antigraphs. The conclusions drawn from CO analysis are confirmed by numerical tests on model oligomer systems. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The x-ray photoionization spectra of large saturated hydrocarbons have been investigated by means of one-particle Green's function calculations. These spectra saturate overall rather quickly to their asymptotic form with increasing system size. The results obtained indicate a severe breakdown of the molecular orbital picture of ionization above a binding energy threshold of about 23 eV, for n-alkane chains ranging from n-propane to n-nonane, or cycloalkane compounds such as cyclobutane, cyclopentane, and cyclohexane. In spite of the fast multiplication of satellite solutions, shake-up lines remain confined above that threshold, as a result of the delocalization properties of one-electron canonical states. The ring closure is shown to emphasize the dispersion of photoionization intensity into satellites. Conformational changes, on the other hand, have only marginal effects on the convoluted correlation bands. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Nonadiabatic effects play an important role in many areas of physics and chemistry. The coupling between electrons and nuclei may, for example, lead to the formation of a conical intersection between potential energy surfaces, which provides an efficient pathway for radiationless decay between electronic states. At such intersections the Born-Oppenheimer approximation breaks down, and unexpected dynamical processes result, which can be observed spectroscopically. We review the basic theory required to understand and describe conical, and related, intersections. A simple model is presented, which can be used to classify the different types of intersections known. An example is also given using wavepacket dynamics simulations to demonstrate the prototypical features of how a molecular system passes through a conical intersection.

    Notes: Abstract Vertical ionization potentials, electron affinities and information about quasi-particles can be obtained by using the technique of the single-particle propagator. The expansion of the self-energy part up to third order perturbation theory can be evaluated numerically, but does not lead, in most cases, to satisfying results. A theoretical and numerical analysis of the diagrammatic expansion of the self-energy part requires the introduction of a renormalized interaction and renormalized hole and particle lines.

    Notes: Abstract The vertical valence ionization potentials of cyclopropane, ethylene oxide and ethylene imine are calculated by a many-body Green's function method. For C3H6 the ordering of the ionization potentials is 2e′(σ), 1e″(π), 2a′1(σ), 1a″2(π), 1e′(σ). The assignment of the 2a′1 and the 1a″2 ionization potentials which has been controversial is thus clarified. The ordering is in agreement with the result obtained via Koopmans' theorem. For ethylene oxide and ethylene imine Koopmans' theorem fails in predicting the correct order of ionic states. For C2H4O the ordering of the ionization potentials is 2b 1(π), 4a 1, 1a 2(π), 2b 2,3a 1, 1b 1(π), 1b 2, 2a 1 and for C2H5N 6a′, 5a′, 3a″, 2a″, 4a′, 3a′, 1a″, 2a′. The agreement of the computed ionization potentials with the experimental values is very satisfactory.
