Abstract

In time-dependent quantum reactive scattering calculations, it is important to quickly and accurately apply the Hamiltonian, as this must be performed at every time-step. We present a method of separating the Hamiltonian for adiabatically-adjusting principal axes hyperspherical (APH) coordinates into its constituent parts, vectorizing these to reduce computational steps required in matrix multiplications, and finally parallelizing the application to reduce the time required to perform the calculation. This reduction in time is achieved with no modification of results for triatomic systems of either lithium or hydrogen.
