A four-state diabatic potential energy matrix (DPEM), Hd, for the description of the nonadiabatic quenching of OH(A2Σ+) by collisions with H2 is reported. The DPEM is constructed as a fit to adiabatic energies, energy gradients, and derivative couplings obtained exclusively from multireference configuration interaction wave functions. A four-adiabatic-electronic-state representation is used in order to describe all energetically accessible regions of the nuclear coordinate space. Partial permutation-inversion symmetry is incorporated into the representation. The fit is based on electronic structure data at 42 882 points, described by over 1.6 million least squares equations with a root mean square (mean unsigned) error of 178(83) cm-1. Comparison of ab initio and Hd determined minima, saddle points, and energy minimized points on C2v, Cs, C∞v, and C1 (noncoplanar) portions of two conical intersection seams are used to establish the accuracy of the Hd.
报道了一种用于描述OH(A2Σ+)与H2碰撞非绝热猝灭的四态 diabatic 势能矩阵(DPEM),即Hd。该DPEM是通过对仅从多参考组态相互作用波函数获得的绝热能量、能量梯度和导数耦合进行拟合构建而成。为了描述核坐标空间中所有能量可达区域,采用了四绝热电子态表示。部分置换 - 反演对称性被纳入该表示中。该拟合基于42882个点的电子结构数据,由超过160万个最小二乘方程描述,均方根(平均无符号)误差为178(83) cm-1。通过比较从头算和Hd确定的两个锥形交叉缝的C2v、Cs、C∞v和C1(非共面)部分的极小值、鞍点和能量最小化点,来确定Hd的准确性。
