摘要: In this article we report the formalism and first implementation of ab initio multiconfigurational Ehrenfest (AI-MCE) method for simulation ultrafast nonadiabatic dynamics, which uses MOLPRO electronic structure program to calculate potential energy surfaces on fly. The approach is tested benchmark excited ππ* state dynamics ethylene producing agree with previous simulations by multiple spawning technique. AI-MCE seems be robust, stable efficient.
