The main purpose of this study is to characterize the nature of the low-energy singlet excited states of the anthranilic acid homodimer (AA) and their changes (symmetry breaking) caused by deformation of the centrosymmetric, ground state structure of AA towards the geometry of the S state. We employ both the correlated ab initio methods (approximate Coupled Clusters Singles and Doubles-CC2 and CASSCF/NEVPT2) as well as the DFT/TDDFT calculations with two exchange-correlation functionals, i.e.

Augmented plane wave methods enable an efficient description of atom-centered or localized features of the electronic density, circumventing high energy cutoffs and thus prohibitive computational costs of pure plane wave formulations. To complement existing implementations for ground-state properties and excitation energies, we present the extension of the Gaussian and augmented plane wave method to excited-state nuclear gradients within the Tamm-Dancoff approximation of time-dependent density functional theory and its implementation in the CP2K program package. Benchmarks for a test set of 35 small molecules demonstrate that maximum errors in the nuclear forces for excited states of singlet and triplet spin multiplicity are smaller than 0.

In the course of systematic studies of intermetallic compounds GaTM (TM─transition metal), the compound GaRh is synthesized by direct reaction of the elements at 700 °C. The material obtained is characterized as a high-temperature modification of GaRh. Powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses reveal tetragonal symmetry (space group 4/, No.

The successful prediction and confirmation of unprecedentedly high-temperature superconductivity in compressed hydrogen-rich hydrides signify a remarkable advancement in the continuous quest for attaining room-temperature superconductivity. The recent studies have established a broad scope for developing binary and ternary hydrides and illustrated correlation between specific hydrogen motifs and high-s under high pressures. The analysis of the microscopic mechanism of superconductivity in hydrides suggests that the high electronic density of states at the Fermi level (E), the large phonon energy scale of the vibration modes and the resulting enhanced electron-phonon coupling are crucial contributors towards the high-phonon-mediated superconductors.

Molybdenum and its alloys are known for their superior strength among body-centered cubic materials. However, their widespread application is hindered by a significant decrease in ductility at lower temperatures. In this study, we demonstrate the achievement of exceptional ductility in a Mo alloy containing rare-earth LaO nanoparticles through rotary-swaging, a rarity in Mo-based materials.
