Time-dependent Semiclassical Description of Helium Nanodroplets — •Max Buchholz and Frank Großmann — Technische Universität Dresden, Institut für Theoretische Physik, D-01062 Dresden, Germany
We study the structure and dynamics of pure and doped 4He nanodroplets by employing the semiclassical hybrid dynamics method in reduced density formulation [1]. Treating only a few degrees of freedom on the level of the Herman-Kluk propagator, while using the simpler Gaussian Wavepacket Dynamics for the others, allows for a microscopic description of droplets comprising up to twenty Helium atoms. In a first step, we investigate structural properties such as ground state density profiles, pair-distance distribution function, and structure function.
