Nuclear-Wavefunction Geometric Phase Verified by Variable Separation for a 96D + 2D Molecule–Surface Model with Nozzle and Surface Parameters
It has been well-known that the geometric phase of the electronic wavefunction is due to separation of electrons and nuclei. The associated geometric phase effects were considered in quantum molecular dynamics by adding a vector potential, called the Berry connection, into the nuclear Hamiltonian operator (e.g., Scie...
