Quasi-classical simulations of resonance Raman spectra based on path integral linearization

Hugo Bessone, Rodolphe Vuilleumier, Riccardo Spezia

Based on a linearization approximation coupled with path integral formalism, we propose a method derived from the propagation of quasi-classical trajectories to simulate resonance…

A missing link in the nitrogen-rich organic chain on Titan

N. Carrasco, J. Bourgalais, L. Vettier +3

Context. The chemical building blocks of life contain a large proportion of nitrogen, an essential element. Titan, the largest moon of Saturn, with its dense atmosphere of molecula…

The formation of urea in space I. Ion-molecule, neutral-neutral, and radical gas-phase reactions

Flavio Siro Brigiano, Yannick Jeanvoine, Antonio Largo +1

Many organic molecules have been observed in the interstellar medium thanks to advances in radioastronomy, and very recently the presence of urea was also suggested. While those mo…

Excited state characterization of carbonyl containing carotenoids: a comparison between single and multireference descriptions

Riccardo Spezia, Stefan Knecht, Benedetta Mennucci

Carotenoids can play multiple roles in biological photoreceptors thanks to their rich photophysics. In the present work, we have investigated six of the most common carbonyl contai…

Charge localization in multiply charged clusters and their electrical properties: Some insights into electrospray droplets

David A. Bonhommeau, Riccardo Spezia, Marie-Pierre Gaigeot

The surface composition of charged Lennard-Jones clusters A, composed of N particles (55 \leq N \leq 1169) among which n are positively charged with charge q, thus having…

Structure and stability of charged clusters

Mark A. Miller, David A. Bonhommeau, Christopher J. Heard +3

When a cluster or nanodroplet bears charge, its structure and thermodynamics are altered and, if the charge exceeds a certain limit, the system becomes unstable with respect to fra…
