Effektive læringsstrategier: Innsikter, implementering og tverrfaglig erfaringsutveksling
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-11-18)Forskning på læring viser tydelig at noen læringsstrategier er mer effektive enn andre. To spesielt effektive læringsstrategier er å hente fram fra hukommelsen gjennom for eksempel testing (retrieval practice) og fordeling av læringen over en lengre periode med jevne mellomrom (distributed practice). Forskning viser imidlertid også at studenter i liten grad er bevisste på hva som er mest effektiv ... -
QTAIM analysis dataset for non-covalent interactions in curan clusters
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2021-12-21)Furan clusters are very important to understand the dynam- ics and properties of the furan solvent. They can be used combined with quantum cluster equilibrium theory to theo- retically determine the thermodynamics properties of the fu- ran solvent. To understand the structures of the furan clus- ters, one needs to understand the non-covalent interactions that hold the furan molecules together. ... -
Twist-Bent Bonds Revisited: Adiabatic Ionization Potentials Demystify Enhanced Reactivity
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-10-11)Explicit calculations of vertical and adiabatic ionization potentials of cyclopropane derivatives with modern DFT methods have underscored the possibility of unusually large reorganization energies (defined as the difference between vertical and adiabatic ionization potentials) of 0.5–1.0 eV for several compounds. Such is the case for ionization of the twist-bent σ-bond of trans-bicyclo[4.1.0]hept-3-ene ... -

Kinetic energy-free Hartree–Fock equations: an integral formulation
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-07-18)We have implemented a self-consistent feld solver for Hartree–Fock calculations, by making use of Multiwavelets and Multiresolution Analysis. We show how such a solver is inherently a preconditioned steepest descent method and therefore a good starting point for rapid convergence. A distinctive feature of our implementation is the absence of any reference to the kinetic energy operator. This is ... -
Review of DFT-simulated and experimental electrochemistry properties of the polypyridyl Row-1 Mn, Fe & Co, and Group-8 Fe, Ru and Os MLCT complexes
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-01-30)Ruthenium had up to date been pivotal in electro- and photocatalytic applications involving reduction of CO<sub>2</sub> and H<sub>2</sub>O, and dye-sensitized solar cells. Commercial applications would seek use of earth-abundant metals instead. Towards this goal, it is key to review the synthesis, electrochemical and spectroscopical properties of associated metal-to-ligand charge transfer complexes ... -
Exact two-component Hamiltonians for relativistic quantum chemistry: Two-electron picture-change corrections made simple
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-19)Based on self-consistent field (SCF) atomic mean-field (amf) quantities, we present two simple yet computationally efficient and numerically accurate matrix-algebraic approaches to correct both scalar-relativistic and spin–orbit two-electron picture-change effects (PCEs) arising within an exact two-component (X2C) Hamiltonian framework. Both approaches, dubbed amfX2C and e(xtended)amfX2C, allow us ... -
The four-component DFT method for the calculation of the EPR g-tensor using a restricted magnetically balanced basis and London atomic orbitals
(Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2022-09-28)ABSTRACT Four-component relativistic treatments of the electron paramagnetic resonance g-tensor have so far been based on a common gauge origin and a restricted kinetically balanced basis. The results of such calculations are prone to exhibit a dependence on the choice of the gauge origin for the vector potential associated with uniform magnetic field and a related dependence on the basis set ... -
