Hibridon: A program suite for time-independent non-reactive quantum scattering calculations
Résumé
Hibridon is a program package to solve the close-coupled equations which occur in the time independent quantum treatment of inelastic atomic and molecular collisions. Gas-phase scattering, photodissociation, collisions of atoms and/or molecules with flat surfaces, and bound states of weakly-bound complexes can be treated. From calculation of the S matrix, integral and differential cross sections, stereodynamic (alignment and steric asymmetry) cross sections, as well as more specialized quantities, such as transport and tensor cross sections, and cross sections between hyperfine levels, and photodissociation amplitudes can be obtained. The program is capable of treating closed-shell systems where the nuclear motion takes place on a single Born-Oppenheimer potential as well as open-shell systems for which the nuclear motion can evolve on several coupled electronic (Born-Oppenheimer) potentials. Program summary: Program Title: Hibridon CPC Library link to program files: https://doi.org/10.17632/sk9zcvz8vs.1 Developer's repository link: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.7551616 Licensing provisions: GPLv3 Programming language: Fortran 90 External routines/libraries: LAPACK, BLAS Nature of problem: Solution of the time-independent Schrödinger equation for the inelastic scattering of atoms and molecules, for the photodissociation of molecules, and for the ro-vibrational motion of weakly bound molecular complexes. Solution method: The scattering wavefunction is expanded in a set of internal states of the system, constructed as direct products of the internal states of one (or both) fragments and angular functions which describe the rotation of one collision partner about the other. The Schrödinger equation for the nuclear motion is solved by determining the expansion coefficients as a function of the interparticle separation starting from the short-range classically forbidden region outwards to the asymptotic region. The S matrix is given by the asymptotic behavior of the wavefunction. Integral and differential cross sections, as well as other scattering and photodissociation quantities are calculated from the S matrix.
