9 - The many different approaches differ basically in these aspects: - Quantum Chemistry for calculation of PES. - Methods: (HF, MP2, CISD..., CCSD....) - Basis sets: (augmented, polarized....) - Nuclear Dynamics for obtention of eigenfunctions and eigenvalues. - Selection of coordinates: (normal mode, bond-angle, spherical...) - Representation of space: (on a grid, with analytical functions...) - Representation of PES: (on a grid, fit to analytical eigenfunctions, force fields...) - „Technical“ approximations - Variational procedures mostly involved. - They are time independent. Theoretical approaches

10 - The Spectral Method (Feit et al., J. Comp. P, 41, 112 (1982)). - Obtains time independent information in a time dependent fashion. - Implies solving the time dependent Schrödinger Equation, which has the solution: Time dependent approach: the spectral method initial state state at time t economic, flexible !
