TLDR
The low-lying excited states of the zinc porphyrin molecule in aqueous solution using long-range corrected TDDFT is studied using the CAM-B3LYP and CAM-PBE0 functionals and compared with previously reported excited states based on high-level coupled cluster methods.
Abstract
We study the low-lying excited states of the zinc porphyrin molecule in aqueous solution using long-range corrected TDDFT. We report results using the CAM-B3LYP and CAM-PBE0 functionals and compare them with previously reported excited states based on high-level coupled cluster (CC) methods. The aqueous environment is treated via a QM/MM approach.

Mixed Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanical Molecular Dynamics Simulations of Biological Systems in Ground and Electronically Excited States

TL;DR: By using feature selection algorithms to identify the most appropriate subset of relevant variables that describe a certain phenomenon, the high-dimensionality of QM/MM data can be reduced and used for further analysis with causal inference algorithms to establish unique cause-effect relationships.

Density‐functional thermochemistry. III. The role of exact exchange

TL;DR: In this article, a semi-empirical exchange correlation functional with local spin density, gradient, and exact exchange terms was proposed. But this functional performed significantly better than previous functionals with gradient corrections only, and fits experimental atomization energies with an impressively small average absolute deviation of 2.4 kcal/mol.

Development of the Colle-Salvetti correlation-energy formula into a functional of the electron density

TL;DR: Numerical calculations on a number of atoms, positive ions, and molecules, of both open- and closed-shell type, show that density-functional formulas for the correlation energy and correlation potential give correlation energies within a few percent.
