Analytic gradients and periodic boundary conditions for direct reaction field polarizable QM/MM Our recently developed Direct Reaction field with ESPF Embedding Model (DREEM) method offers an efficient and physically rigorous framework for incorporating polarizable molecular mechanics (MM) envir...

New pre-print with @huixrotllant.bsky.social and Nicolas Ferré! We've been making some big developments for the DREEM method for polarisable QM/MM, including analytic energy gradients for SCF and TD-DFT and periodic boundary conditions. #compchemsky #chemsky

Efficient Polarizable QM/MM Using the Direct Reaction Field Hamiltonian with Electrostatic Potential Fitted Multipole Operators Electronic polarization and dispersion are decisive actors in determining interaction energies between molecules. These interactions have a particularly profound effect on excitation energies of molec...

#compchem Good read: Efficient Polarizable QM/MM Using the Direct Reaction Field Hamiltonian with Electrostatic Potential Fitted Multipole Operators #compchemsky pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...

Great to visit Nicolas Ferré and @huixrotllant.bsky.social at the Institut de Chimie Radicalaire in Marseille for the PhD defense of Simone BONFRATE. #compchem
