The atoms considered in- clude hydrogen, the rare gases, the alkali atoms (up to Rb), and the alkaline-earth atoms (up to Sr). The term Z111 arising from three mutual dipole interactions is known as the Axilrod-Teller- Muto coefficient or the DDD (dipole-dipole-dipole) coefficient. Similarly, the terms Z112, Z113, and Z122 arise from the mutual combinations of dipole (1), quadrupole (2), and octupole (3) interactions between atoms and they are sometimes known, respectively, as dipole-dipole-quadrupole, dipole- dipole-octupole, and dipole-quadrupole-quadrupole coefficients. Results for the four Z coefficients are given for the homonuclear trimers, for the trimers involving two like-rare-gas atoms, and for the trimers with all combinations of the H, He, and Li atoms. An exhaustive compilation of all coefficients between all possible atomic combinations is presented as supplementary data. © 2012 American Institute of Physics.[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.3691891] I.

  • What Is the Shape of the Helium Trimer? a Comparison with the Neon and Argon Trimers Dario Bressanini* and Gabriele Morosi
    ARTICLE pubs.acs.org/JPCA What Is the Shape of the Helium Trimer? A Comparison with the Neon and Argon Trimers Dario Bressanini* and Gabriele Morosi Dipartimento di Scienze Chimiche e Ambientali, Universita' dell'Insubria, Via Lucini 3, 22100 Como, Italy ABSTRACT: Despite its apparent simplicity and extensive theoretical investiga- tions, the issue of what is the shape of the helium trimer is still debated in the literature. After reviewing previous conflicting interpretations of computational studies, we introduce the angleÀangle distribution function as a tool to discuss in a simple way the shape of any trimer. We compute this function along with many different geometrical distributions using variational and diffusion Monte Carlo methods. We compare them with the corresponding ones for the neon and argon fl trimers. Our analysis shows that while Ne3 and Ar3 uctuate around an 4 equilibrium structure that is an equilateral triangle, He3 shows an extremely broad angleÀangle distribution function, and all kinds of three-atom configura- 4 tions must be taken into account in its description. Classifying He3 as either equilateral or linear or any other particular shape, as was done in the past, is not sensible, because in this case the intuitive notion of equilibrium structure is ill defined. Our results could help the interpretation of future experiments aimed at measuring the geometrical properties of the helium trimer. ’ INTRODUCTION candidate for the Efimov effect, first discussed in nuclear physics. 1 Weakly bound van der Waals noble gases clusters in the last The recent paper of Kolganova et al. provides a nice review of the literature of this field of research.

  • Fantasy Versus Reality in Fragment-Based Quantum Chemistry
    The Journal PERSPECTIVE of Chemical Physics scitation.org/journal/jcp Fantasy versus reality in fragment-based quantum chemistry Cite as: J. Chem. Phys. 151, 170901 (2019); doi: 10.1063/1.5126216 Submitted: 31 August 2019 • Accepted: 6 October 2019 • Published Online: 4 November 2019 John M. Herberta) AFFILIATIONS Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, The Ohio State University, Columbus, Ohio 43210, USA a)[email protected] ABSTRACT Since the introduction of the fragment molecular orbital method 20 years ago, fragment-based approaches have occupied a small but growing niche in quantum chemistry. These methods decompose a large molecular system into subsystems small enough to be amenable to electronic structure calculations, following which the subsystem information is reassembled in order to approximate an otherwise intractable supersys- tem calculation. Fragmentation sidesteps the steep rise (with respect to system size) in the cost of ab initio calculations, replacing it with a distributed cost across numerous computer processors. Such methods are attractive, in part, because they are easily parallelizable and there- fore readily amenable to exascale computing. As such, there has been hope that distributed computing might offer the proverbial “free lunch” in quantum chemistry, with the entrée being high-level calculations on very large systems. While fragment-based quantum chemistry can count many success stories, there also exists a seedy underbelly of rarely acknowledged problems. As these methods begin to mature, it is time to have a serious conversation about what they can and cannot be expected to accomplish in the near future. Both successes and challenges are highlighted in this Perspective.

  • Few-Body Approach to Diffraction of Small Helium Clusters by Nanostructures
    Few-body approach to diffraction of small helium clusters by nanostructures1 Gerhard C. Hegerfeldt2 Institut f¨ur Theoretische Physik, Universit¨at G¨ottingen Bunsenstr. 9, 37073 G¨ottingen, Germany and Thorsten K¨ohler3 Max-Planck-Institut f¨ur Str¨omungsforschung Bunsenstr. 10, D-37073 G¨ottingen, Germany Abstract We use few-body methods to investigate the diffraction of weakly bound systems by a transmission grating. For helium dimers, He2, we obtain explicit expressions for the transition amplitude in the elastic channel. 1 1. Introduction In recent years typical optics experiments have been carried over to atoms, among them diffraction by double slits [1] and by transmission gratings which were produced by nanostructure techniques [2, 3]. The usual wave-theoretical methods of classical optics (Huygens, Kirchhoff) seem to give excellent descriptions of these experiments [4] so that apparently not much more than a good textbook on classical optics seems to be needed. This simple picture, however, has changed. Recently Sch¨ollkopf and Toennies [2, 5, 6] have performed impressive diffraction experiments with helium dimers and helium clusters consisting of up to 26 atoms. A typical diffraction pattern arXiv:quant-ph/9809031v1 11 Sep 1998 is shown in Fig. 1. The helium dimer He2, discovered a few years ago [8, 2], has an extremely low binding energy of −0.11 µeV [7], with no excited states. The binding energy is much smaller than the incident kinetic energy of typical experiments. Its diameter is estimated to be about 6 nm [9]. Present day slit widths are as low as 50 nm and a further reduction is expected.

Many new laser induced phenomena in atoms have been discovered, such as multiphoton ionization, above-threshold ionization, high-order harmonic generation etc. For the interaction with atoms, usually only one electron in the outermost shell is assumed to be active (called single-active-electron approximation) while all other electrons are considered to remain frozen in their initial states. Due to the extra degrees of freedom (vibration and rotation) and the more complex structures, the interaction of molecules with intense laser pulses reveals many new features. Recent experiments have indicated that electrons from inner valence orbitals of molecules can have significant contributions to ionization and high harmonic generation.

Some of the knowledge gained from studies of atomic dimers can be generalised to more complex systems. Adding a third atom to an atomic dimer gives a first chance to study how the binding between two atoms is affected by a third. Few-body physics is an intermediate area which helps us to understand some but not all phenomena in many-body physics. Very weakly bound, spatially very extended quantum systems with a wave function reaching far beyond the classical forbidden region and with low angular momentum are characterized as halo systems. These unusual quantum systems, first discovered in nuclear physics may also exist in systems of neutral atoms. Since the first clear theoretical prediction in 1977, of a halo system possessing an Efimov state, manifested in the excited state of the bosonic van der Waals he- 4 lium trimer 2He3, small helium and different spin-polarised halo hydrogen clusters and their corresponding isotopologues have been intensively studied the last three decades.

In the present work, we studied weakly-bound helium tetramers in order to test whether some of these four-body realistic systems qualify as halos. Their ground-state binding energies and structural properties were thoroughly estimated using the diffusion Monte Carlo method with pure estimators. Helium tetramer properties proved to be less sensitive on the potential model than previously evaluated trimer properties. We predict the 4 3 4 4 3 existence of the realistic four-body halo He2 He2, while He4 and He3 He are close to the border and thus can be used as prototypes of quasi-halo systems. Our results could be tested by experimental determination of tetramers’ structural properties, using a similar setup to the one developed for the study of helium trimers. Keywords halo states, tetramers, helium clusters, quantum Monte Carlo Introduction Quantum mechanics predicts universal features of weakly bound and spatially extended few- body systems. The Efimov effect1 in the quantum three-body problem is probably one of the most famous.
