Abstract

Employing a classical density-functional description of liquid environments, we introduce a rigorous method for the diffusion quantum Monte Carlo calculation of free energies and thermodynamic averages of solvated systems that requires neither thermodynamic sampling nor explicit solvent electrons. We find that this method yields promising results and small convergence errors for a set of test molecules. It is implemented readily and is applicable to a range of challenges in condensed matter, including the study of transition states of molecular and surface reactions in liquid environments.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
