3 Hamiltonian in a uniform magnetic field The nonrelativistic electronic Hamiltonian (implied summation over electrons): H = H + A (r) p + B (r) s A (r)2 The vector potential of the uniform (static) fields B is given by: B = A = const A O (r) = 1 2 B (r O) = 1 2 B r O note: the gauge origin O is arbitrary! The orbital paramagnetic interaction: A O (r) p = 1 2 B (r O) p = 1 2 B (r O) p = 1 2 B L O where we have introduced the angular momentum relative to the gauge origin: The diamagnetic interaction: L O = r O p 1 2 A2 (B) = 1 8 (B r O) (B r O ) = 1 8 [ B 2 r 2 O (B r O) 2] The electronic Hamiltonian in a uniform magnetic field depends on the gauge origin: H = H B L O + B s [ B 2 r 2 O (B r O) 2] a change of the origin is a gauge transformation Trygve Helgaker (CTCC, University of Oslo) Molecules in an external magnetic field LCT, UPMC, November / 34

4 Gauge transformation of the Schrödinger equation What is the effect of a gauge transformation on the wave function? Consider a general gauge transformation for the electron (atomic units): A = A + f, φ = φ f t It can be shown this represents a unitary transformation of H i / t: ( H i ) ( = exp ( if ) H i ) exp (if ) t t In order that the Schrödinger equation is still satisfied ( H i ) Ψ t ( H i t ) Ψ, the new wave function must undergo a compensating unitary transformation: Ψ = exp ( if ) Ψ All observable properties such as the electron density are then unaffected: ρ = (Ψ ) Ψ = [Ψ exp( if )] [exp( if )Ψ] = Ψ Ψ = ρ Trygve Helgaker (CTCC, University of Oslo) Molecules in an external magnetic field LCT, UPMC, November / 34

5 Gauge-origin transformations Different choices of gauge origin in the external vector potential are related by gauge transformations: A O (r) = 1 B (r O) 2 A G (r) = A O (r) A O (G) = A O (r) + f, f (r) = A O (G) r The exact wave function transforms accordingly and gives gauge-invariant results: Ψ exact G = exp [ if (r)] Ψ exact O = exp [ia O (G) r] Ψ exact O rapid oscillations Illustration: H 2 on the z axis in a magnetic field B =.2 a.u. in the y direction wave function with gauge origin at O = (,, ) (left) and G = (1,, ) (right) Wave function, ψ Gauge transformed wave function, ψ" Re(ψ) Im(ψ) ψ Re(ψ") Im(ψ") ψ" Space coordinate, x (along the bond) Space coordinate, x (along the bond) Trygve Helgaker (CTCC, University of Oslo) Molecules in an external magnetic field LCT, UPMC, November / 34

6 London atomic orbitals The exact wave function transforms in the following manner: Ψ exact G = exp [ i 1 2 B (G O) r] Ψ exact O this behaviour cannot easily be modelled by standard atomic orbitals Let us build this behaviour directly into the atomic orbitals: ω lm (r K, B, G) = exp [ i 1 2 B (G K) r] χ lm (r K ) χ lm (r K ) is a normal atomic orbital centered at K and quantum numbers lm ω lm (r K, B, G) is a field-dependent orbital at K with field B and gauge origin G Each AO now responds in a physically sound manner to an applied magnetic field indeed, all AOs are now correct to first order in B, for any gauge origin G the calculations become rigorously gauge-origin independent uniform (good) quality follows, independent of molecule size These are the London orbitals after Fritz London (1937) Questions: also known as GIAOs (gauge-origin independent AOs or gauge-origin including AOs) are London orbitals needed in atoms? why not attach the phase factor to the total wave function instead? Trygve Helgaker (CTCC, University of Oslo) Molecules in an external magnetic field LCT, UPMC, November / 34

7 London orbitals Let us consider the FCI dissociation of H 2 in a magnetic field full lines: London atomic orbitals dashed lines: AOs with gauge origin between atoms dotted lines: AOs with gauge origin on one of the atoms Without London orbitals, the FCI method is not size extensive in magnetic fields Trygve Helgaker (CTCC, University of Oslo) Molecules in an external magnetic field LCT, UPMC, November / 34
