  1. 1. Absorbing boundary techniques for the time-dependent Schrödinger equation

    Author : Anna Nissen; Gunilla Kreiss; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Beräkningsvetenskap med inriktning mot numerisk analys; Scientific Computing with specialization in Numerical Analysis;

    Abstract : Chemical dissociation processes are important in quantum dynamics. Such processes can be investigated theoretically and numerically through the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, which gives a quantum mechanical description of molecular dynamics.This thesis discusses the numerical simulation of chemical reactions involving dissociation.

  2. 2. Finite Difference Methods for Time-Dependent Wave Propagation Problems

    Author : Ylva Ljungberg Rydin; Ken Mattsson; Erik Sjöqvist; Magnus Svärd; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Finite differences; Wave propagation problems; Summation-by-parts; Simultaneous approximation term; High-order accuracy; Deforming domains; Point sources; Scientific Computing; Beräkningsvetenskap;

    Abstract : Wave propagation models are essential in many fields of physics, such as acoustics, electromagnetics, and quantum mechanics. Mathematically, waves can be described by partial differential equations (PDEs).  In most cases, exact solutions to wave-dominated PDEs are nearly impossible to derive. READ MORE
