  • Stability and bonding nature of positronic lithium molecular dianion. International journal

    We studied the stability of a system consisting of a positron (e+) and two lithium anions, [Li-; e+; Li-], using first-principles quantum Monte Carlo calculations combined with the multi-component molecular orbital method. While diatomic lithium molecular dianions Li22- are unstable, we found that its positronic complex can form a bound state with respect to the lowest energy decay into the dissociation channel Li2- and a positronium (Ps). The [Li-; e+; Li-] system has the minimum energy at the internuclear distance of ∼3 Å, which is close to the equilibrium internuclear distance of Li2-. At the minimum energy structure both an excess electron and a positron are delocalized as orbiting around the Li2- molecular anion core. A dominant feature of such a positron bonding structure is described as the Ps fraction bound to Li2-, unlike the covalent positron bonding scheme for the electronically isovalent [H-; e+; H-] complex.

  • Theoretical investigation of the enhancement of positron affinity by the vibration and dimerization of non-polar carbon disulfide

    The positronic bound state for the non-polar carbon disulfide (CS2) has been experimentally identified, although previous theoretical investigations, which were dedicated to studying the positronic CS2 monomer, could not reasonably reproduce the experimentally measured positron affinity. In the present study, we performed analysis of the vibrational averaged positron affinity for the positronic CS2 dimer, [C2S4; e(+)], using the Hartree-Fock and configuration interaction levels of the multi-component molecular orbital method combined with the self-consistent field level of the vibrational variational Monte Carlo method. We demonstrated that the equilibrium structure of the non-polar C2S4 can have the positronic bound state with a positron affinity of about 46.18 meV in the configuration interaction level, while this is 0 meV in the Hartree-Fock level. Furthermore, by taking into account the vibrational effect, we succeeded in reproducing the resonant positron kinetic energies lying close to the experimental value, where the vibrational averaged positron affinity becomes greater with an increased dipole moment and dipole polarizability. We also showed possible mechanisms to effectively enhance the resonant positron capture for [C2S4; e(+)], associated with both the infrared active and infrared inactive vibrational modes.

  • First-principles quantum Monte Carlo studies for prediction of double minima for positronic hydrogen molecular dianion Reviewed International journal

    We studied the positron (e+) interaction with the hydrogen molecular dianion H2 2- to form the positronic bound state of [H-; e+; H-] using the first-principles quantum Monte Carlo method combined with the multi-component molecular orbital one. H2 2- itself is unstable, but it was shown that such an unbound H2 2- may become stable by intermediating a positron and forming the positronic covalent bond of the [H-; e+; H-] system [J. Charry et al., Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 57, 8859-8864 (2018)]. We newly found that [H-; e+; H-] has double minima containing another positronic bound state of [H2; Ps-]-like configuration with the positronium negative ion Ps- at the bond distance approximately equal to the equilibrium H2 molecule. Our multi-component variational Monte Carlo calculation and the multi-component configuration interaction one resulted in the positronic covalent bonded structure being the global minimum, whereas a more sophisticated multi-component diffusion Monte Carlo calculation clearly showed that the [H2; Ps-]-like structure at the short bond distance is energetically more stable than the positronic covalent bonded one. The relaxation due to interparticle correlation effects pertinent to Ps- (or Ps) formation is crucial for the formation of the Ps-A2-like structure for binding a positron to the non-polar negatively charged dihydrogen.

    We have developed quantum multi-component <i>ab initio</i> methods, such as multi-component molecular orbital and multi-component quantum Monte Calro methods, for theoretical calculation of positronic compounds. We have carried out the accurate calculation of positron affinity (PA) and pair annihilation rate for positronic compounds by using these multi-component methods, and found that these values are in reasonable agreement with the corresponding experimental ones. We found that (i) the positronic orbital is much more delocalized than the electronic highest occupied molecular orbital, and (ii) there exist the strong correlation between PA and dipole moment.

    Recently, we have developed some first-principles approaches for quantum multi-component systems including both electrons and nuclei quantum-mechanically: Multi-component molecular orbital (MC_MO), density functional theory (MC_DFT), quantum Monte Carlo (MC_QMC), and ab initio path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) methods. In our research project, we have improved our quantum multi-component molecular simulation methods for the efficient sampling with parallel computing and have extended our method to much larger systems. We have applied our methods, especially path integral molecular dynamics method, to hydrogen-bonded ferroelectric systems such as squaric acid. We have analyzed nuclear quantum fluctuation, effective potential change, and geometrical H/D isotope effect.

    これまで我々は、温度効果だけでなく水素原子核の量子揺らぎを考慮した多成分系分子理論を開発し、常温においても核の量子効果が重要であることを見出し、低障壁水素結合系における特徴的なNMRスペクトルの存在を理論的に予測してきた。本年度は主に以下を実施した。
    (1)高次系への拡張:計算コストを抑えるために、マルチリゾリューション法に基づくポテンシャル曲面や、半経験的分子軌道法を適用した[1]。
    (2)イオン水和クラスターの計算:Ag+(H2O)n(n=1-4)およびCu+(H20)の構造と振動スペクトルをより精密に算出するために、ab initio分子動力学(MD)法、ab initio経路積分分子動力学(PIMD)法[2]、ab initioリングポリマー分子動力学(RPMD)法を応用した。MD法およびRPMD法により得られた振動スペクトルは非調和性を考慮することができる。そのため、特にRPMD法で得られた振動スペクトルは、スケール因子を用いることなく実験値とよい一致を示した。
    (3)生体小分子:ポルフィセンの二重プロトン移動機構の解析:photoactive yellow protein(PYP)の発光素(CRO)近傍における低障壁水素結合部位に、電子と原子核の量子性を考慮可能な多成分系密度汎関数理論を適用した。その結果、CROと隣接酸素原子間の距離が実験値とよい一致を示し、また重水素置換によって酸素原子間距離が伸張することを見出した。

    We have developed highly accurate Multi-Component Molecular Theory, such as multi-component quantum Monte Carlo and ab initio path integral molecular dynamics. Multi-component quantum Monte Carlo has been applied to some positronic compounds, and obtained the lowest variational energies. Ab initio path integral molecular dynamics simulation of M+(H3O2-) (M=Li, Na, and K) has been carried out to analyze how the structure and dynamics of low-barrier hydrogen-bonded Zundel anion, H3O2-, can be affected by the counter alkali metal cation, M+. Our simulation predicts that the quantum proton transfer in Zundel anion can be strongly coupled to the motion of counter cation located nearby.
