This study presents a new wave field formalism for quantum-classical mechanics, improving nonadiabatic dynamics calculations for the spin-boson model. The approach enhances propagation time and accuracy without surface-hopping approximations.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Classical mechanics
  • Theoretical physics

Background:

  • Recent advancements in quantum-classical mechanics.
  • Need for improved methods to handle nonadiabatic dynamics.
  • Limitations of existing operator-based approaches.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To remodel a phase space dependent operator approach into a wave field formalism.
  • To apply this new formalism to the spin-boson model's relaxation dynamics.
  • To investigate the handling of nonadiabatic effects.

Main Methods:

  • Reformulation of quantum-classical mechanics as a wave field theory.
  • Utilizing a non-Hamiltonian bracket for coupled nonlinear equations.
  • Application to the spin-boson model, including adiabatic and nonadiabatic regimes.

Main Results:

  • The wave field formalism shows good agreement with operator approaches in the adiabatic limit.
  • The theory successfully incorporates nonadiabatic effects without surface-hopping approximations.
  • Propagation time for nonadiabatic dynamics is increased by at least a factor of 2 with reduced statistical errors.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed wave field formalism offers a robust method for quantum-classical dynamics.
  • It provides a significant improvement over existing methods for nonadiabatic dynamics.
  • This work extends Weinberg's nonlinear quantum mechanics formalism in a non-Hamiltonian way.
