Abstract

A multiple coherent states time-averaging [1] semiclassical initial value representation (MC-TA-SC-IVR) method for spectra calculations is presented.[2, 3] The method is implemented for ab initio semiclassical simulations, i.e. a direct dynamics approach, and it is shown to faithfully reproduce all kind of quantum effects, including ZPEs, anharmonicities, tunneling splittings, resonances [4] and vibrational eigenfunctions.[5] This on-the-fly approach is useful in particular for complex systems,[5, 6] where the elaboration of a pre-computed potential energy surface can turn into a formidable task. I will show that the method can deal with molecules with multiple wells and as complex as glycine. [1] A. L. Kaledin and W. H. Miller, J. Chem. Phys. 118, 7174 (2003) [2] M. Ceotto, S. Atahan, S.
