Quantum Chemical Investigations of Reaction Paths of Metalloenzymes and Biomimetic Models – The Hydrogenase Example

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present applications of quantum chemical methods to the investigation of reaction paths of metalloenzymes and related biomimetic models, using hydrogenase models as a reference case.
Journal ArticleDOI

Currents, kinetic energy, and molecular magnetism

TL;DR: In this article, the authors define current density and kinetic energy density for a general many-electron system in the presence of an external magnetic field, and various results are established, in particular the electronic energy expression has a purely classical interpretation in which every element of the charge cloud behaves like a small magnet, the magnetization depending on the circulation of induced currents.

Internal and external eigenvalue problems of Hermitian operators and their use in electronic structure theory

TL;DR: In this article, the conceptual and interpretative advantages of using the separate eigenvalue problems for the internal and external part of the Hermitian matrix representing a physical quantity in quantum mechanics are examined.

Orbital-free quantum crystallography: view on forces in crystals

TL;DR: Quantum theory of atoms in molecules and the orbital-free density functional theory are combined in this work to study the spatial distribution of electrostatic and quantum electronic forces acting in stable crystals and it was found that F(r) force pushes electrons to the atomic nuclei, while the kinetic force Fkin( r) draws electrons from nuclei.
