Abstract:Hybrid quantum‐classical systems combine both classical and quantum degrees of freedom. Typically, in Chemistry, Molecular Physics, or Materials Science, the classical degrees of freedom describe atomic nuclei (or cations with frozen core electrons), whereas the quantum particles are the electrons. Although many possible hybrid dynamical models exist, the basic one is the so‐called Ehrenfest dynamics that results from the straightforward partial classical limit applied to the full quantum Schrödinger equation.… Show more
