| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To understand chemical reactions and the formation of chemical bonds, we should understand the motion of electrons within atoms and molecules. Experimentally, the motion of electrons in a molecule can be probed by ultrashort laser pulses, but to interpret the experimental results, theoretical simulation are necessary. The current project aims to develop efficient simulation methods for solving the time-dependent many-electron Schroedinger equation. Two novel methods have been proposed and implemented, (i) The Factorized CI method, in which the matrix of configuration-interaction coefficients is approximated as a product of three smaller matrices, and (ii) the time-dependent geminal method, in which the total wave function is written as an antisymmetrized product of time-dependent two-electron wave functions called geminals. Both methods are applied to the simulation of few-electrons systems such as a beryllium atom interacting with short and intense laser pulses.
