Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have developed two-component relativistic quantum Monte Carlo methods, based on the regular approximation (RA) methods i.e. infinite-order RA, and first-order RA. The developed methods take advantage of the existing non-relativistic QMC methods and their programs, and are suitable for massively parallel computing. We have implemented spin-orbit and energy gradient calculation schemes into our program code. Applicability of the relativistic QMC methods to core-excitations have been investigated.
