Periodic Reporting for period 1 - CoEND (Correlated Electron-Nuclear Dynamics: A novel mixed quantum-semiclassical approach)

The Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation is among the most basic approximations in the quantum theory of molecules and solids. It is based on the fact that electrons usually move much faster than the nuclei. This allows us to visualize a molecule or solid as a set of nuclei...
