Abstract
The impact of the Tamm-Dancoff approximation (TDA) for time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) calculations of X-ray absorption and X-ray emission spectra (XAS and XES) is investigated, showing small discrepancies in the excitation energies and intensities. Through explicit diagonalization of the TDDFT Hessian, XES was considered by using full TDDFT with a core-hole reference state. This has previously not been possible with most TDDFT implementations as a result of the presence of negative eigenvalues. Furthermore, a core-valence separation (CVS) scheme for XES is presented, in which only elements including the core-hole are considered, resulting in a small Hessian with the dimension of the number of remaining occupied orbitals of the same spin as the core-hole (CH). The resulting spectra are in surprisingly good agreement with the full-space counterpart, illustrating the weak coupling between the valence-valence and valence-CH transitions. Complications resulting from contributions from the discretized continuum are discussed, which can occur for TDDFT calculations of XAS and XES and for TDA calculations of XAS. In conclusion, we recommend that TDA be used when calculating X-ray emission spectra, and either CVS-TDA or CVS-TDDFT can be used for X-ray absorption spectra.

Abstract
Time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) is the most widely-used electronic structure method for excited states, due to a favorable combination of low cost and semi-quantitative accuracy in many contexts, even if there are well recognized limitations. This Perspective describes various ways in which excited states from TD-DFT calculations can be visualized and analyzed, both qualitatively and quantitatively. This includes not just orbitals and densities but also well-defined statistical measures of electron-hole separation and of Frenkel-type exciton delocalization. Emphasis is placed on mathematical connections between methods that have often been discussed separately. Particular attention is paid to charge-transfer diagnostics, which provide indicators of when TD-DFT may not be trustworthy due to its categorical failure to describe long-range electron transfer. Measures of exciton size and charge separation that are directly connected to the underlying transition density are recommended over more ad hoc metrics for quantifying charge-transfer character.

Abstract
Unusual nuclear quantum effects may emerge near noble metal nanostructures such as squeezed vibrational states in molecular junctions and plasmonic resonance energy transfer in the infrared domain. Herein, nuclear quantum effects near heavy metals are studied by nuclear-electronic orbital density functional theory (NEO-DFT) with an effective core potential. For a quantum proton sandwiched between a pair of gold tips modeled by two Au6 clusters, NEO-DFT calculations suggest that the quantum proton density can be squeezed as the tip distance decreases. For an HF molecule placed near a one-dimensional Au nanowire composed of up to 34 Au atoms, real-time NEO time-dependent density functional theory (RT-NEO-TDDFT) shows that the infrared plasmonic motion within the Au nanowire may resonantly transfer electronic energy to the HF proton vibrational stretch mode. Overall, these calculations illustrate the advantages of the NEO approach for probing nuclear quantum effects, such as squeezed proton vibrational states and infrared plasmonic resonance energy transfer.

Abstract
We present a novel function fitting method for approximating the propagation of the time-dependent electric dipole moment from real-time electronic structure calculations. Real-time calculations of the electronic absorption spectrum require discrete Fourier transforms of the electric dipole moment. The spectral resolution is determined by the total propagation time, i.e., the trajectory length of the dipole moment, causing a high computational cost. Our developed method uses function fitting on shorter trajectories of the dipole moment, achieving arbitrary spectral resolution through extrapolation. Numerical testing shows that the fitting method can reproduce high-resolution spectra by using short dipole trajectories. The method converges with as little as 100 a.u. dipole trajectories for some systems, though the difficulty converging increases with the spectral density. We also introduce an error estimate of the fit, reliably assessing its convergence and hence the quality of the approximated spectrum.

Abstract
Real-time coupled cluster (CC) methods have several advantages over their frequency-domain counterparts, namely, response and equation of motion CC theories. Broadband spectra, strong fields, and pulse manipulation allow for the simulation of complex spectroscopies that are unreachable using frequency-domain approaches. Due to the high-order polynomial scaling, the required numerical time propagation of the CC residual expressions is a computationally demanding process. This scaling may be reduced by local correlation schemes, which aim to reduce the size of the (virtual) orbital space by truncation according to user-defined parameters. We present the first application of local correlation to real-time CC. As in previous studies of locally correlated frequency-domain CC, traditional local correlation schemes are of limited utility for field-dependent properties; however, a perturbation-aware scheme proves promising. A detailed analysis of the amplitude dynamics suggests that the main challenge is a strong time dependence of the wave function sparsity.

Abstract
We simulate X-ray absorption spectra at elemental K-edges using time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) in both its conventional linear-response implementation and its explicitly time-dependent or "real-time" formulation. Real-time TDDFT simulations enable broadband spectra calculations without the need to invoke frozen occupied orbitals ("core/valence separation"), but we find that these spectra are often contaminated by transitions to the continuum that originate from lower-energy core and semicore orbitals. This problem becomes acute in triple-ζ basis sets, although it is sometimes sidestepped in double-ζ basis sets. Transitions to the continuum acquire surprisingly large dipole oscillator strengths, leading to spectra that are difficult to interpret. Meaningful spectra can be recovered by means of a filtering technique that decomposes the spectrum into contributions from individual occupied orbitals, and the same procedure can be used to separate L- and K-edge spectra arising from different elements within a given molecule. In contrast, conventional linear-response TDDFT requires core/valence separation but is free of these artifacts. It is also significantly more efficient than the real-time approach, even when hundreds of individual states are needed to reproduce near-edge absorption features and even when Padé approximants are used to reduce the real-time simulations to just 2-4 fs of time propagation. Despite the cost, the real-time approach may be useful to examine the validity of the core/valence separation approximation.

Abstract
Spectroscopy is one of the most accurate probes of the molecular world. However, predicting molecular spectra accurately is computationally difficult because of the presence of entanglement between electronic and nuclear degrees of freedom. Although quantum computers promise to reduce this computational cost, existing quantum approaches rely on combining signals from individual eigenstates, an approach whose cost grows exponentially with molecule size. Here, we introduce a method for scalable analog quantum simulation of molecular spectroscopy: by performing simulations in the time domain, the number of required measurements depends on the desired spectral range and resolution, not molecular size. Our approach can treat more complicated molecular models than previous ones, requires fewer approximations, and can be extended to open quantum systems with minimal overhead. We present a direct mapping of the underlying problem of time-domain simulation of molecular spectra to the degrees of freedom and control fields available in a trapped-ion quantum simulator. We experimentally demonstrate our algorithm on a trapped-ion device, exploiting both intrinsic electronic and motional degrees of freedom, showing excellent quantitative agreement for a single-mode vibronic photoelectron spectrum of SO2.

Abstract
N2O, or nitrous oxide, is an important greenhouse gas with a significant impact on global warming and climate change. To accurately model the behavior of N2O in the atmosphere, precise representations of its intermolecular force fields are required. First principles quantum mechanical calculations followed by appropriate fitting are commonly used to establish such force fields. However, fitting such force fields is challenging due to the complex mathematical functions that describe the molecular interactions of N2O. As such, ongoing research is focused on improving our understanding of N2O and developing more accurate models for use in climate modeling and other applications. In this study, we investigated the strength of the intermolecular interactions in the N2O-N2O dimer using the coupled-cluster theory with single, double, and perturbative triple excitation [CCSD(T)] method with the def2-QZVPP basis set. Our calculations provided a detailed understanding of the intermolecular forces that govern the stability and structure of the N2O dimer. We found that the N2O-N2O dimer is stabilized by a combination of van der Waals forces and dipole-dipole interactions. The calculated interaction energy between the two N2O molecules in the dimer was found to be -5.09 kcal/mol, which is in good agreement with previous theoretical and experimental results. Additionally, we analyzed the molecular properties of the N2O-N2O dimer, including its geometry and charge distribution. Our calculations provide a comprehensive understanding of the intermolecular interactions in the N2O-N2O dimer using the CCSD(T) method with the def2-QZVPP basis set by using the improved Lennard-Jones interaction potential method. These results can be used to improve our understanding of atmospheric chemistry and climate modeling, as well as to aid in the interpretation of experimental data.

Abstract
Within the nuclear-electronic orbital (NEO) framework, the real-time NEO time-dependent density functional theory (RT-NEO-TDDFT) approach enables the simulation of coupled electronic-nuclear dynamics. In this approach, the electrons and quantum nuclei are propagated in time on the same footing. A relatively small time step is required to propagate the much faster electronic dynamics, thereby prohibiting the simulation of long-time nuclear quantum dynamics. Herein, the electronic Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation within the NEO framework is presented. In this approach, the electronic density is quenched to the ground state at each time step, and the real-time nuclear quantum dynamics is propagated on an instantaneous electronic ground state defined by both the classical nuclear geometry and the nonequilibrium quantum nuclear density. Because the electronic dynamics is no longer propagated, this approximation enables the use of an order-of-magnitude larger time step, thus greatly reducing the computational cost. Moreover, invoking the electronic BO approximation also fixes the unphysical asymmetric Rabi splitting observed in previous semiclassical RT-NEO-TDDFT simulations of vibrational polaritons even for small Rabi splitting, instead yielding a stable, symmetric Rabi splitting. For the intramolecular proton transfer in malonaldehyde, both RT-NEO-Ehrenfest dynamics and its BO counterpart can describe proton delocalization during the real-time nuclear quantum dynamics. Thus, the BO RT-NEO approach provides the foundation for a wide range of chemical and biological applications.

Abstract
Vibrational strong coupling (VSC) provides a novel means to modify chemical reactions and energy transfer pathways. To efficiently model chemical dynamics under VSC in the collective regime, herein a hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical (QM/MM) cavity molecular dynamics (CavMD) scheme is developed and applied to an experimentally studied chemical system. This approach can achieve linear scaling with respect to the number of molecules for a dilute solution under VSC by assuming that each QM solute molecule is surrounded by an independent MM solvent bath. Application of this approach to a dilute solution of Fe(CO)5 in n-dodecane under VSC demonstrates polariton dephasing to the dark modes and polariton-enhanced molecular nonlinear absorption. These simulations predict that strongly exciting the lower polariton may provide an energy transfer pathway that selectively excites the equatorial CO vibrations rather than the axial CO vibrations. Moreover, these simulations also directly probe the cavity effect on the dynamics of the Fe(CO)5 Berry pseudorotation reaction for comparison to recent two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy experiments. This theoretical approach is applicable to a wide range of other polaritonic systems and provides a tool for exploring the use of VSC for selective infrared photochemistry.

Abstract
Real-time time-dependent density-functional theory (RT-TDDFT) and linear response time-dependent density-functional theory (LR-TDDFT) are two important approaches to simulate electronic spectra. However, the basis sets used in such calculations are usually the ones designed mainly for electronic ground state calculations. In this work, we propose a systematic and robust scheme to truncate the atomic orbital (AO) basis set employed in TDDFT and TD Hartree-Fock (TDHF) calculations. The truncated bases are tested for both LR- and RT-TDDFT as well as RT-TDHF approaches, and provide an acceleration up to an order of magnitude while the shifts of excitation energies of interest are generally within 0.2 eV. The procedure only requires one extra RT calculation with 1% of the total propagation time and a simple modification on basis set file, which allows an instant application in any quantum chemistry package supporting RT-/LR-TDDFT calculations. Aside from the reduced computational effort, this approach also offers valuable insight into the effect of different basis functions on computed electronic excitations and further ideas on the design of basis sets for special purposes.

Abstract
Explicit time-dependent electronic structure theory methods are increasingly prevalent in the areas of condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry, with the broad-band optical absorptivity of molecular and small condensed-phase systems nowadays routinely studied with such approaches. In this paper, it is demonstrated that electronic dynamics simulations can similarly be employed to study cross sections for the scattering-induced electronic excitations probed in nonresonant inelastic X-ray scattering and momentum-resolved electron energy loss spectroscopies. A method is put forth for evaluating the electronic dynamic structure factor, which involves the application of a momentum boost-type perturbation and transformation of the resulting reciprocal space density fluctuations into the frequency domain. Good agreement is first demonstrated between the dynamic structure factor extracted from these electronic dynamics simulations and the corresponding transition matrix elements from linear response theory. The method is then applied to some extended (quasi)one-dimensional systems, for which the wave vector becomes a good quantum number in the thermodynamic limit. Finally, the dispersion of many-body excitations in a series of hydrogen-terminated graphene flakes (and twisted bilayers thereof) is investigated to highlight the utility of the presented approach for capturing morphology-dependent effects in the inelastic scattering cross sections of nanostructured and/or noncrystalline materials.

Abstract
Excitation-energy transfer is a key step in processes such as photosynthesis that convert light into other forms of energy. Time-dependent density functional theory (DFT) in real time is ideal for the first-principles simulation of such processes due to its computational efficiency. We here demonstrate how real-time DFT can be used for analyzing excitation-energy transfer from first-principles. We discuss several measures of energy transfer that are based solely on the time-dependent density, are well founded in the DFT framework, allow for intuitive understanding and visualization, and reproduce important limiting cases of an analytical model. We demonstrate their usefulness in calculations for model systems, both with static nuclei and in the context of DFT-based Ehrenfest dynamics.

Abstract
A velocity and symmetric gauge implementation for real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) in the CP2K package using a Gaussian and plane wave approach is presented, including the explicit gauge-transformed contributions due to the nonlocal part of pseudopotentials. Absorption spectra of gas-phase α-pinene are calculated in length and velocity gauges in the long-wavelength approximation for the application of a δ pulse in linear and full order. The velocity gauge implementation is also applied to a solvated uracil molecule to showcase its use within periodic boundary conditions (PBC). For the calculation of the expectation value of the electric dipole moment in PBC, both the velocity representation and the modern theory of polarization give equivalent absorption spectra if a distributed reference point is used for the nonlocal term of the velocity operator. The discussion of linear response theory takes place in a unified framework in terms of linear response functions in propagator notation, distinguishing the parts of the linear response functions associated with perturbation and response. To further investigate gauge dependence, electric circular dichroism (ECD) spectra of α-pinene were calculated either as magnetic response to an electric field perturbation, in length or velocity gauge, or as electric response to a magnetic field perturbation in the symmetric gauge. Both approaches, electric and magnetic perturbations, have been found to yield equivalent ECD spectra.

Abstract
We explore the framework of a real-time coupled cluster method with a focus on improving its computational efficiency. Propagation of the wave function via the time-dependent Schrödinger equation places high demands on computing resources, particularly for high level theories such as coupled cluster with polynomial scaling. Similar to earlier investigations of coupled cluster properties, we demonstrate that the use of single-precision arithmetic reduces both the storage and multiplicative costs of the real-time simulation by approximately a factor of 2 with no significant impact on the resulting UV/vis absorption spectrum computed via the Fourier transform of the time-dependent dipole moment. Additional speedups─of up to a factor of 14 in test simulations of water clusters─are obtained via a straightforward GPU-based implementation as compared to conventional CPU calculations. We also find that further performance optimization is accessible through sagacious selection of numerical integration algorithms, and the adaptive methods, such as the Cash-Karp integrator, provide an effective balance between computing costs and numerical stability. Finally, we demonstrate that a simple mixed-step integrator based on the conventional fourth-order Runge-Kutta approach is capable of stable propagations even for strong external fields, provided the time step is appropriately adapted to the duration of the laser pulse with only minimal computational overhead.

Abstract
Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) can in principle access the whole absorption spectrum of a many-electron system exposed to a narrow pulse. However, this requires an accurate and efficient propagator for the numerical integration of the time-dependent Kohn-Sham equation. While a low-order time propagator is already sufficient for the low-lying valence absorption spectra, it is no longer the case for the X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) of systems composed even only of light elements, for which the use of a high-order propagator is indispensable. It is then crucial to choose a largest possible time step and a shortest possible simulation time, so as to minimize the computational cost. To this end, we propose here a robust AutoPST approach to determine automatically (Auto) the propagator (P), step (S), and time (T) for relativistic RT-TDDFT simulations of XAS.

Abstract
Molecular polaritons have become an emerging platform for remotely controlling molecular properties through strong light-matter interactions. Herein, a semiclassical approach is developed for describing molecular polaritons by self-consistently propagating the real-time dynamics of classical cavity modes and a quantum molecular subsystem described by the nuclear-electronic orbital (NEO) method, where electrons and specified nuclei are treated quantum mechanically on the same level. This semiclassical real-time NEO approach provides a unified description of electronic and vibrational strong couplings and describes the impact of the cavity on coupled nuclear-electronic dynamics while including nuclear quantum effects. For a single o-hydroxybenzaldehyde molecule under electronic strong coupling, this approach shows that the cavity suppression of excited state intramolecular proton transfer is influenced not only by the polaritonic potential energy surface but also by the time scale of the chemical reaction. This work provides the foundation for exploring collective strong coupling in nuclear-electronic quantum dynamical systems within optical cavities.

Abstract
In this work we implement the real-time time-dependent block-orthogonalized Manby-Miller embedding (rt-BOMME) approach alongside our previously developed real-time frozen density embedding time-dependent density functional theory (rt-TDDFT-in-DFT FDE) code, and investigate these methods’ performance in reproducing X-ray absorption spectra (XAS) obtained with standard rt-TDDFT simulations, for model systems comprised of solvated fluoride and chloride ions ([X@(H2O)8−, X = F, Cl). We observe that for ground-state quantities such as core orbital energies, the BOMME approach shows significantly better agreement with supermolecular results than FDE for the strongly interacting fluoride system, while for chloride the two embedding approaches show more similar results. For the excited states, we see that while FDE (constrained not to have the environment densities relaxed in the ground state) is in good agreement with the reference calculations for the region around the K and L1 edges, and is capable of reproducing the splitting of the 1s1 (n + 1)p1 final states (n + 1 being the lowest virtual p orbital of the halides), it by and large fails to properly reproduce the 1s1 (n + 2)p1 states and misses the electronic states arising from excitation to orbitals with important contributions from the solvent. The BOMME results, on the other hand, provide a faithful qualitative representation of the spectra in all energy regions considered, though its intrinsic approximation of employing a lower-accuracy exchange-correlation functional for the environment induces non-negligible shifts in peak positions for the excitations from the halide to the environment. Our results thus confirm that QM/QM embedding approaches are viable alternatives to standard real-time simulations of X-ray absorption spectra of species in complex or confined environments.

Abstract
Real-time methods are convenient for simulating core-level absorption spectra but suffer from nonphysical intruder peaks when using atom-centered basis sets. In transient absorption spectra, these peaks exhibit highly nonphysical time-dependent modulations in their energies and oscillator strengths. In this paper, we address the origins of these intruder peaks and propose a straightforward and effective solution based on a filtered dipole operator. In combination with real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT), we demonstrate how to compute intruder-free attosecond transient X-ray absorption spectra for the aminophenol (C6H7NO) oxygen and nitrogen K-edges and the α-quartz (SiO2) silicon L-edge. Without filtering, the computed spectra are qualitatively wrong. This procedure is suitable for both static and transient inner-shell spectroscopy studies and can easily be implemented in a range of real-time methodologies.

Abstract
Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) is an attractive tool to model quantum dynamics by real-time propagation without the linear response approximation. Sharing the same technical framework of RT-TDDFT, imaginary-time time-dependent density functional theory (it-TDDFT) is a recently developed robust-convergence ground state method. Presented here are high-precision all-electron RT-TDDFT and it-TDDFT implementations within a numerical atom-centered orbital (NAO) basis function framework in the FHI-aims code. We discuss the theoretical background and technical choices in our implementation. First, RT-TDDFT results are validated against linear-response TDDFT results. Specifically, we analyze the NAO basis sets' convergence for Thiel's test set of small molecules and confirm the importance of the augmentation basis functions for adequate convergence. Adopting a velocity-gauge formalism, we next demonstrate applications for systems with periodic boundary conditions. Taking advantage of the all-electron full-potential implementation, we present applications for core level spectra. For it-TDDFT, we confirm that within the all-electron NAO formalism, it-TDDFT can successfully converge systems that are difficult to converge in the standard self-consistent field method. We finally benchmark our implementation for systems up to ∼500 atoms. The implementation exhibits almost linear weak and strong scaling behavior.

Abstract
This article summarizes technical advances contained in the fifth major release of the Q-Chem quantum chemistry program package, covering developments since 2015. A comprehensive library of exchange-correlation functionals, along with a suite of correlated many-body methods, continues to be a hallmark of the Q-Chem software. The many-body methods include novel variants of both coupled-cluster and configuration-interaction approaches along with methods based on the algebraic diagrammatic construction and variational reduced density-matrix methods. Methods highlighted in Q-Chem 5 include a suite of tools for modeling core-level spectroscopy, methods for describing metastable resonances, methods for computing vibronic spectra, the nuclear-electronic orbital method, and several different energy decomposition analysis techniques. High-performance capabilities including multithreaded parallelism and support for calculations on graphics processing units are described. Q-Chem boasts a community of well over 100 active academic developers, and the continuing evolution of the software is supported by an "open teamware" model and an increasingly modular design.

Abstract
A time-dependent (TD) formulation of equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (EOM-CC) theory can provide excited-state information over an arbitrarily wide energy window with a reduced memory footprint relative to conventional, frequency-domain EOM-CC theory. However, the floating-point costs of the time-integration required by TD-EOM-CC are generally far larger than those of the frequency-domain form of the approach. This work considers the potential of the short iterative Lanczos (SIL) integration scheme [J. Chem. Phys. 1986, 85, 5870-5876] to reduce the floating-point costs of TD-EOM-CC simulations. Low-energy and K-edge absorption features for small molecules are evaluated using TD-EOM-CC with single and double excitations, with the time-integrations carried out via SIL and fourth-order Runge-Kutta (RK4) schemes. Spectra derived from SIL- and RK4-driven simulations are nearly indistinguishable, and with an appropriately chosen subspace dimension, the SIL requires far fewer floating-point operations than are required by RK4. For K-edge spectra, SIL is the more efficient scheme by an average factor of 7.2.

Abstract
In this work, we simulate the electron dynamics in molecular systems with the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group (TD-DMRG) algorithm. We leverage the generality of the so-called tangent-space TD-DMRG formulation and design a computational framework in which the dynamics is driven by the exact nonrelativistic electronic Hamiltonian. We show that by parametrizing the wave function as a matrix product state, we can accurately simulate the dynamics of systems including up to 20 electrons and 32 orbitals. We apply the TD-DMRG algorithm to three problems that are hardly targeted by time-independent methods: the calculation of molecular (hyper)polarizabilities, the simulation of electronic absorption spectra, and the study of ultrafast ionization dynamics.

Abstract
Nitrogen bond dissociation is one of the important steps in the Haber-Bosch process, where N2 is catalytically converted to NH3; however, the dissociation of the nitrogen triple bond is difficult to achieve. In this study, we investigate the possibility of nitrogen activation using plasmonic excitation of an icosahedral aluminum nanocluster. Real-time time-dependent density functional theory is employed to study the electron dynamics of the Al13-1 and [Al13N2]-1 systems. Step and trapezoidal electric fields with field strengths of 0.001 and 0.01 au and different polarization directions are applied to the systems, and the electron dynamics are analyzed. Because the occupation of nitrogen antibonding orbitals could potentially activate the N-N bond, we investigated the single-particle electronic transitions corresponding to an excitation from an occupied (O) to virtual (V) molecular orbitals (POV) of [Al13N2]-1. We found that N2 antibonding orbitals are more likely to become populated with stronger fields and also by using off-resonance fields.

Abstract
Measuring the attosecond movement of electrons in molecules is challenging due to the high temporal and spatial resolutions required. X-ray scattering-based methods are promising, but many questions remain concerning the sensitivity of the scattering signals to changes in density, as well as the means of reconstructing the dynamics from these signals. In this paper, we present simulations of stationary core-holes and electron dynamics following inner-shell ionization of the oxazole molecule. Using a combination of time-dependent density functional theory simulations along with X-ray scattering theory, we demonstrate that the sudden core-hole ionization produces a significant change in the X-ray scattering response and how the electron currents across the molecule should manifest as measurable modulations to the time dependent X-ray scattering signal. This suggests that X-ray scattering is a viable probe for measuring electronic processes at time scales faster than nuclear motion.

Abstract
![]()
An implementation
of real-time time-dependent Hartree–Fock
(RT-TDHF) and current density functional theory (RT-TDCDFT) for molecules
in strong uniform magnetic fields is presented. In contrast to earlier
implementations, the present work enables the use of the RT-TDCDFT
formalism, which explicitly includes field-dependent terms in the
exchange–correlation functional. A range of current-dependent
exchange–correlation functionals based on the TPSS functional
are considered, including a range-separated variant, which is particularly
suitable for application to excited state calculations. The performance
of a wide range of propagator algorithms for real-time methods is
investigated in this context. A recently proposed molecular orbital
pair decomposition analysis allows for assignment of electronic transitions,
providing detailed information about which molecular orbitals are
involved in each excitation. The application of these methods is demonstrated
for the electronic absorption spectra of N2 and H2O both in the absence and in the presence of a magnetic field. The
dependence of electronic spectra on the magnetic field strength and
its orientation relative to the molecule is studied. The complex evolution
of the absorption spectra with magnetic field is rationalized using
the molecular orbital pair decomposition analysis, which provides
crucial insight in strong fields where the spectra are radically different
from their zero-field counterparts.

Abstract
We investigate (1) electron-beam-induced plasmon absorption spectra of Ag molecular nanowire dimers and (2) electron-beam-induced energy transfer between two nanowires. We employ linear-response time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and real-time TDDFT methods to simulate the electron-beam-induced plasmonic excitations, dynamics, and corresponding electron energy loss spectrum for small models of a single molecular nanowire with four Ag atoms and for two Ag nanowires. An array of different relative orientations of nanowires and of different initial excitation conditions resulting from applying an electron beam at different positions with respect to the Ag nanowires is investigated. The results demonstrate (1) an electron beam can induce plasmonic excitations from the molecular Ag nanowire ground state to the excited states that are both optically allowed and forbidden, (2) a tunability for selective excitations that can be controlled by the position of a focused electron beam, and (3) kinetic and dynamic behaviors of time-dependent electron-beam-induced energy transfer between two Ag molecular nanowires depend on the position of the beam source and nanowire separation distance, providing insights into the spatial dependences of plasmonic couplings in nanowire arrays.

Abstract
In this article, we report a scheme to analyze and visualize the energy density fluctuations during the real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) simulations. Using Ag4-N2 complexes as examples, it is shown that the grid-based Kohn-Sham energy density can be computed at each time step using a procedure from Nakai and coworkers. Then the instantaneous energy of each molecular fragment (such as Ag4 and N2) can be obtained by partitioning the Kohn-Sham energy densities using Becke or fragment-based Hirshfeld (FBH) scheme. A strong orientation-dependence is observed for the energy flow between the Ag4 cluster and a nearby N2 molecule in the RT-TDDFT simulations. Future applications of such an energy density analysis in electron dynamics simulations are discussed.

Abstract
First-principles calculations offer the chance to obtain a microscopic understanding of light-harvesting processes. Time-dependent density functional theory can have the computational efficiency to allow for such calculations. However, the (semi-)local exchange-correlation approximations that are computationally most efficient fail to describe charge-transfer excitations reliably. We here investigate whether the inexpensive average density self-interaction correction (ADSIC) remedies the problem. For the systems that we study, ADSIC is even more prone to the charge-transfer problem than the local density approximation. We further explore the recently reported finding that the electrostatic potential associated with the chromophores' protein environment in the light-harvesting complex 2 beneficially shifts spurious excitations. We find a great sensitivity on the chromophores' atomistic structure in this problem. Geometries obtained from classical molecular dynamics are more strongly affected by the spurious charge-transfer problem than the ones obtained from crystallography or density functional theory. For crystal structure geometries and density-functional theory optimized ones, our calculations confirm that the electrostatic potential shifts the spurious excitations out of the energetic range that is most relevant for electronic coupling.

Abstract
Frozen-density embedding (FDE) represents a versatile embedding scheme to describe the environmental effect on electron dynamics in molecular systems. The extension of the general theory of FDE to the real-time time-dependent Kohn-Sham method has previously been presented and implemented in plane waves and periodic boundary conditions [Pavanello, M.; J. Chem. Phys. 2015, 142, 154116]. In the current paper, we extend our recent formulation of the real-time time-dependent Kohn-Sham method based on localized basis set functions and developed within the Psi4NumPy framework to the FDE scheme. The latter has been implemented in its "uncoupled" flavor (in which the time evolution is only carried out for the active subsystem, while the environment subsystems remain at their ground state), using and adapting the FDE implementation already available in the PyEmbed module of the scripting framework PyADF. The implementation was facilitated by the fact that both Psi4NumPy and PyADF, being native Python API, provided an ideal framework of development using the Python advantages in terms of code readability and reusability. We employed this new implementation to investigate the stability of the time-propagation procedure, which is based on an efficient predictor/corrector second-order midpoint Magnus propagator employing an exact diagonalization, in combination with the FDE scheme. We demonstrate that the inclusion of the FDE potential does not introduce any numerical instability in time propagation of the density matrix of the active subsystem, and in the limit of the weak external field, the numerical results for low-lying transition energies are consistent with those obtained using the reference FDE calculations based on the linear-response TDDFT. The method is found to give stable numerical results also in the presence of a strong external field inducing nonlinear effects. Preliminary results are reported for high harmonic generation (HHG) of a water molecule embedded in a small water cluster. The effect of the embedding potential is evident in the HHG spectrum reducing the number of the well-resolved high harmonics at high energy with respect to the free water. This is consistent with a shift toward lower ionization energy passing from an isolated water molecule to a small water cluster. The computational burden for the propagation step increases approximately linearly with the size of the surrounding frozen environment. Furthermore, we have also shown that the updating frequency of the embedding potential may be significantly reduced, much less than one per time step, without jeopardizing the accuracy of the transition energies.

Abstract
In this paper, we present a method to compute the x-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra of solid-state transition metal oxides using real-time time-dependent density functional theory, including spin-orbit coupling effects. This was performed on bulk-mimicking anatase titania (TiO2) clusters, which allows for the use of hybrid functionals and atom-centered all electron basis sets. Furthermore, this method was employed to calculate the shifts in the XANES spectra of the Ti L-edge in the presence of applied electric fields to understand how external fields can modify the electronic structure, and how this can be probed using x-ray absorption spectroscopy. Specifically, the onset of t2g peaks in the Ti L-edge was observed to red shift and the eg peaks were observed to blue shift with increasing fields, attributed to changes in the hybridization of the conduction band (3d) orbitals.

Abstract
X-ray transient absorption spectroscopy (XTAS) is a promising technique for measuring electron dynamics in molecules and solids with attosecond time resolutions. In XTAS, the elemental specificity and spatial locality of core-to-valence X-ray absorption is exploited to relate modulations in the time-resolved absorption spectra to local electron density variations around particular atoms. However, interpreting these absorption modulations and frequency shifts as a function of the time delay in terms of dynamics can be challenging. In this paper, we present a first-principles study of attosecond XTAS in a selection of simple molecules based on real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) with constrained DFT to emulate the state of the system following the interaction with a ultraviolet pump laser. In general, there is a decrease in the optical density and a blue shift in the frequency with increasing electron density around the absorbing atom. In carbon monoxide (CO), modulations in the O K-edge occur at the frequency of the valence electron dynamics, while for dioxygen (O2) they occur at twice the frequency, due to the indistinguishability of the oxygen atoms. In 4-aminophenol (H2NC6H4OH), likewise, there is a decrease in the optical density and a blue shift in the frequency for the oxygen and nitrogen K-edges with increasing charge density on the O and N, respectively. Similar effects are observed in the nitrogen K-edge for a long-range charge-transfer excitation in a benzene (C6H6)-tetracyanoethylene (C6N4; TCNE) dimer but with weaker modulations due to the delocalization of the charge across the entire TCNE molecule. Additionally, in all cases, there are pre-edge features corresponding to core transitions to depopulated orbitals. These potentially offer a background-free signal that only appears in pumped molecules.

Abstract
![]()
Photoactive
systems are characterized by their capacity to absorb
the energy of light and transform it. Usually, more than one chromophore
is involved in the light absorption and excitation transport processes
in complex systems. Linear-Response Time-Dependent Density Functional
(LR-TDDFT) is commonly used to identify excitation energies and transition
properties by solving the well-known Casida’s equation for
single molecules. However, in practice, LR-TDDFT presents some disadvantages
when dealing with multichromophore systems due to the increasing size
of the electron–hole pairwise basis required for accurate evaluation
of the absorption spectrum. In this work, we extend our local density
decomposition method that enables us to disentangle individual contributions
into the absorption spectrum to computation of exciton dynamic properties,
such as exciton coupling parameters. We derive an analytical expression
for the transition density from Real-Time Propagation TDDFT (P-TDDFT)
based on Linear Response theorems. We demonstrate the validity of
our method to determine transition dipole moments, transition densities,
and exciton coupling for systems of increasing complexity. We start
from the isolated benzaldehyde molecule, perform a distance analysis
for π-stacked dimers, and finally map the exciton coupling for
a 14 benzaldehyde cluster.
