The enclosed fortran code illustrates the use of the SH-RP-iso method applied to a two-level scattering problem with a single nuclear degree of freedom, as employed in Fig. 4 of the paper above.

Description of the enclosed files:

[1] rp_iso.f

This subroutine computes the rpmd version of the isomorphic potential for a general two-level system with one nuclear coordinate (Eqs. 16-19 in the paper), as well as its derivative with respect to ring polymer bead positions. Following evaluation of the isomorphic potential in the diabatic representation, the isomorphic potential is diagonalized to obtain the adiabatic representation and the first-derivative non-adiabatic coupling, as described in the paper.

INPUT:
  • the non-negative integer log_2(nbead), where nbead is the number of ring-polymer beads
  • the imaginary timestep, \beta_n = \beta / nbead, where \beta is the reciprocal temperature
  • the position array of the ring-polymer \vec{x}, x[nbead]
OUTPUT:
  • adiabatic ring-polymer surfaces, V11ia and V22ia
  • their derivative with respect to the ring-polymer bead position, dV11ia and dV22ia
  • first-derivative non-adiabatic couplings, D12i

[2] model.f

A module that provides the diabatic physical potential matrix for a two-level scattering problem in one dimension.

INPUT:
  • the position variable, x
OUTPUT:
  • the diabatic potential energy matrix elements, Vij
  • their derivatives with respect to position, dVij

[3] sh_rp_iso_integrator.f

A module that uses subroutines in [1] and [2] to evolve a SH-RP-iso trajectory. Initially, thermalized ring-polymer internal modes are sampled with a given centroid position and velocity. Uses the velocity-Verlet algorithm with a fourth-order Runge-Kutta integrator, as described in the paper.

INPUT:
  • temperature, temp
  • timestep, dt
  • initial ring-polymer centroid position, xcin
  • initial ring-polymer centroid velocity, vcin
OUTPUT:
  • The SH-RP-iso trajectory.

[4] main.f

A simple driver main routine.

Given a set of input parameters, such as temperature, timestep, initial adiabatic surface, initial centroid position, initial centroid momentum, number of ring polymer beads, and random number generator seed, this routine integrates a surface-hopping ring-polymer trajectory on the isomorphic Hamiltonian. The driver routine requires a stopping criterion for trajectory termination and allows for the sampling of various properties to be included by the user.
