Nonadiabatic dynamics simulations have become a standard approach to explore photochemical reactions. Such simulations require underlying potential energy surfaces and couplings between them, calculated at a chosen level of theory, yet this aspect is rarely assessed. Here, in combination with the popular trajectory surface hopping dynamics method, we use a high-accuracy XMS-CASPT2 electronic structure level as a benchmark for assessing the performances of various post-Hartree-Fock methods (namely, CIS, ADC(2), CC2, and CASSCF) and exchange-correlation functionals (PBE, PBE0, and CAM-B3LYP) in a TD-DFT/TDA context, using the isomerization around a double bond as test case.

Defining a theoretical model systematically delivering accurate predictions of the fluorescence quantum yields of organic dyes is highly desirable for designing improved fluorophores in a systematic rather than trial-and-error way. To this end, the first required step is to obtain reliable radiative rates (), as low typically precludes effective emission. In the present contribution, using a series of 10 substituted phenyls with known experimental , we analyze the impact of the computational protocol on the determined through the thermal vibration correlation function (TVCF) approach on the basis of time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations of the energies, structures, and vibrational parameters.

Objectives: Recent research by Public Health has redefined harmful gambling, shifting the focus from problematic people with irresponsible behaviour to 'gamblogenic' environments. The aim of this research was to support this alternative perspective with concrete ecological tools for characterizing harmful environments. Studies that analyse the spatial distribution of gambling show that people living in the most disadvantaged areas have greater access to gambling and are more affected by the harms of gambling.

Study Design: Retrospective analysis wherein 103 patients were considered, and 76 patients were included: 49 were classified as chronic non-specific low back pain (CNSLBP) (Study group) and 27 had identifiable cases of specific chronic low back pain (LBP) (Control group).
Objective: Elucidate markers of systemic inflammation in patients with CNSLBP.
Summary Of Background Data: Mechanisms of LBP are poorly understood.
