AI Article Synopsis

  • The earlier multi-reference coupled-cluster theory faced energy discontinuities when changing the reference state during potential energy curve calculations.
  • A new solution is proposed using natural active space self-consistent field orbitals to resolve these discontinuities.
  • This method results in smooth potential energy curves for various dissociation scenarios, specifically demonstrated with hydrogen fluoride and the water molecule.

Article Abstract

The earlier proposed multi-reference state-specific coupled-cluster theory with the complete active space reference [CASCC; Lyakh et al., J. Chem. Phys. 122, 024108 (2005)] suffered from a problem of energy discontinuities when the formal reference state was changing in the calculation of the potential energy curve (PEC). A simple remedy to the discontinuity problem is found and is presented in this work. It involves using natural complete active space self-consistent field active orbitals in the complete active space coupled-cluster calculations. The approach gives smooth PECs for different types of dissociation problems, as illustrated in the calculations of the dissociation of the single bond in the hydrogen fluorine molecule and of the symmetric double-bond dissociation in the water molecule.

Background: Research has shown that engaging in a range of healthy lifestyles or behavioral factors can help reduce the risk of developing dementia. Improved knowledge of modifiable risk factors for dementia may help engage people to reduce their risk, with beneficial impacts on individual and public health. Moreover, many guidelines emphasize the importance of providing education and web-based resources for dementia prevention.

Objective: Sexual assault perpetration is widespread among young men. According to the Confluence Model, hostile masculinity and impersonal sex are trait-level factors associated with sexual assault perpetration likelihood. Additionally, state-level factors, including alcohol intoxication, current emotions, and ability to modulate one's emotions, have been tied to sexual assault perpetration via the I3 Model.

The acid mine drainage (AMD) is characterized by its highly acidic nature and elevated concentrations of metal ions, thereby exerting significant impacts on both human health and the environment. This study employed a dispersed alkaline substrate (DAS) consisting of thermal activation magnesite and pine shavings for the treatment of AMD. The investigation focused on determining the optimal thermal activation conditions of magnesite, evaluating the effectiveness of the DAS in regulating acidity and removing metal ions from AMD, identifying critical factors influencing treatment efficiency, and conducting toxicity assessment on the effluent.
