A Reusable Library for Second-Order Orbital Optimization Using the Trust Region Method

Jonas Greiner, Ida-Marie Høyvik, Susi Lehtola +1

We present a reusable, open-source software implementation of the second-order trust region algorithm in the new OpenTrustRegion library. We apply the implementation to the general…

Atomic Confinement Potentials and the Generation of Numerical Atomic Orbitals

Hugo Åström, Susi Lehtola

We aim to develop novel reusable open source infrastructure [Lehtola, J. Chem. Phys. 159, 180901 (2023)] for numerical atomic orbitals (NAOs). Soft confinement potentials are typic…

Roadmap on Advancements of the FHI-aims Software Package

Joseph W. Abbott, Carlos Mera Acosta, Alaa Akkoush +203

Electronic-structure theory is the foundation of the description of materials including multiscale modeling of their properties and functions. Obviously, without sufficient accurac…

Density functional benchmark for quadruple hydrogen bonds

Usman Ahmed, Mikael P. Johansson, Susi Lehtola +1

Hydrogen bonding is an important non-covalent interaction that plays a major role in molecular self-organization and supramolecular structures. It can be described accurately with…

Coupled-cluster pairing models for radicals with strong correlations

Susi Lehtola, Martin Head-Gordon

The pairing hierarchy of perfect pairing (PP), perfect quadruples (PQ) and perfect hextuples (PH) are sparsified coupled cluster models that are exact in a pairing active space for…

OpenOrbitalOptimizer -- a reusable open source library for self-consistent field calculations

Susi Lehtola, Lori A. Burns

According to the modern paradigms of software engineering, standard tasks are best accomplished by reusable open source libraries. We describe OpenOrbitalOptimizer: a reusable open…

Reaching precise proton affinities in non-Born-Oppenheimer calculations

Luukas Nikkanen, Susi Lehtola

An attractive way to model nuclear quantum effects is to describe select nuclei quantum mechanically at the same level as the electrons. This non-Born-Oppenheimer (non-BO) method i…

Repulsive interatomic potentials calculated at three levels of theory

Kai Nordlund, Susi Lehtola, Gerhard Hobler

The high-energy repulsive interaction between nuclei at distances much smaller than the equilibrium bond length is the key quantity determining the nuclear stopping power and atom…
