We report an implementation of the linear vibronic coupling (LVC) model within surface hopping dynamics approach and present utilities for parameterizing this in a blackbox fashion. This results extremely efficient method to obtain qualitative even semi-quantitative information about photodynamical behavior molecule, provides new route toward benchmarking computations. The merits applicability are demonstrated number applications. First, is applied SO2 molecule showing that it possible...
Luminescence from Earth-abundant metal ions in solution at room temperature is a very challenging objective due to the intrinsically weak ligand field splitting of first-row transition ions, which leads efficient nonradiative deactivation via metal-centered states. Only handful 3dn complexes (n ≠ 10) show sizable luminescence temperature. near-infrared spectral region even more difficult achieve as further pathways come into play. No have displayed emission >1000 nm up now. Here, we report...

Quantum dynamics simulations are becoming a powerful tool for understanding photo-excited molecules. Their poor scaling, however, means that it is hard to study molecules with more than few atoms accurately, and major challenge at the moment inclusion of molecular environment. Here, we present proof principle way break two bottlenecks preventing large but accurate simulations. First, problem providing potential energy surfaces general system addressed by parameterizing standard force field...

The 3' noncoding region (NCR) of the genomic picornaviral RNA is believed to contain major cis-acting signals required for negative-strand synthesis. NCR foot-and-mouth disease virus (FMDV) was studied in context a full-length infectious clone which genetic element deleted or exchanged equivalent distantly related swine picornavirus, vesicular (SVDV). Deletion NCR, while maintaining intact poly(A) tail as well its replacement SVDV counterpart, abrogated replication susceptible cells...
Despite the biological and therapeutic relevance of CDK4/6 for treatment HR+, HER2- advanced breast cancer, detailed mode action inhibitors is not completely understood. Of particular interest, phosphorylation CDK4 at T172 (pT172) critical generating active conformation, yet no such crystal structure has been reported to date. We describe here x-ray CDK4-cyclin D3 bound inhibitor abemaciclib discuss key aspects catalytically-competent complex. Furthermore, effect on explored, despite its...
To simulate a 200 nm photoexcitation in cyclobutanone to the n-3s Rydberg state, classical trajectories were excited from Wigner distribution singlet state manifold based on excitation energies and oscillator strengths. Twelve 12 triplet states are treated using TD-B3LYP-D3/6-31+G** for electronic structure, nuclei propagated with Tully surface hopping method. Using time-dependent density functional theory, we able predict bond cleavage that takes place S1 as well ultrafast deactivation nπ*....
One of the primary drawbacks organic materials, compared to their inorganic counterparts in various optoelectronic applications, is lower charge generation efficiency, which stems from inherently higher exciton binding energy. Therefore, new out-of-the-box approaches need be introduced field. Herein, we propose a approach increase formation naphthalenediimide (NDI) derivatives by inducing large torsional angle between NDI core and core-attached substituent, deconjugating resulting extended...
The study aimed to assess the preparedness of third-year Bachelor Science in Marine Transportation (BSMT) students Asian Institute Maritime Studies (AIMS) for occupational hazards through competency-based training programs. A quantitative descriptive-correlational research design was utilized collect data from 39 purposively sampled regarding their demographic profiles, perceptions skills acquisition, and self- reported levels. Questionnaires were developed based on Standards Training,...
We report an efficient iterative procedure that exploits surface-hopping trajectory methods and quantum dynamics to achieve two complementary purposes: identify the minimum dimensionality of a molecular Hamiltonian in terms electronic nuclear degrees freedom study radiationless relaxation mechanisms as well provide reference dynamical calculation allows assessing validity parameters. This double goal is achieved by feedback loop between surface hopping MCTDH calculations based on potential...
Simulating the coupled electronic and nuclear response of a molecule to light excitation requires application nonadiabatic molecular dynamics. However, when faced with specific photophysical or photochemical problem, selecting most suitable theoretical approach from wide array available techniques is not trivial task. The challenge further complicated by lack systematic method comparisons rigorous testing on realistic systems. This absence comprehensive benchmarks remains major obstacle...
Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection induces elevated levels of inflammatory cytokines, which are mainly produced by the innate response to virus. The role NK cells, potent producers IFN-γ and cytotoxicity, has not been sufficiently studied in setting SARS-CoV-2 infection. We confirmed a different distribution cell subsets hospitalized COVID-19 patients despite their deficiency. impairment this defense is focused on cytotoxic capacity CD56dim cells. On one...
