Chemical kinetic models obtained with this approach are ready-to-use for, e.g., ignition delay time simulations, as shown for hydrogen combustion. The ab initio level of theory for predictions is easily exchangeable and the presently used G3MP2 level of theory is found to reliably reproduce hydrogen and methane oxidation thermochemistry and kinetics data. This scheme provides the NASA polynomial and modified Arrhenius equation parameters for all species and reactions that are observed during the simulation and supplies them in the ChemKin format. This methodology combines the phase space sampling of reactive molecular dynamics with the thermochemistry and kinetics prediction capabilities of quantum mechanics. Although theory is still ahead of experiment, we outline recent advances that have led to the first chemical calculations on small quantum information processors.Īutomated chemical kinetic modeling via hybrid reactive molecular dynamics and quantum chemistry simulations.ĭöntgen, Malte Schmalz, Felix Kopp, Wassja A Kröger, Leif C Leonhard, KaiĪn automated scheme for obtaining chemical kinetic models from scratch using reactive molecular dynamics and quantum chemistry simulations is presented. We describe algorithms that achieve significant advantages for the electronic-structure problem, the simulation of chemical dynamics, protein folding, and other tasks. In this review, we discuss to what extent the ideas in quantum computation, now a well-established field, have been applied to chemical problems. One can avoid the steep scaling associated with the exact simulation of increasingly large quantum systems on conventional computers, by mapping the quantum system to another, more controllable one. The difficulty of simulating quantum systems, well known to quantum chemists, prompted the idea of quantum computation.

Quantum computers using these techniques could outperform current classical computers with 100 qubits.

We also show how to efficiently obtain chemically relevant observables, such as state-to-state transition probabilities and thermal reaction rates. Although the preparation and measurement of arbitrary states on a quantum computer is inefficient, here we demonstrate how to prepare states of chemical interest efficiently.

This is the case even though the entire electronic wave function is propagated on a grid with appropriately short time steps.

Surprisingly, this treatment is not only more accurate than the Born–Oppenheimer approximation but faster and more efficient as well, for all reactions with more than about four atoms. Our algorithm uses the split-operator approach and explicitly simulates all electron-nuclear and interelectronic interactions in quadratic time.

By contrast, we demonstrate that quantum computers could exactly simulate chemical reactions in polynomial time. As a consequence, these techniques can be applied only to small systems. The computational cost of exact methods for quantum simulation using classical computers grows exponentially with system size.
