QUANTUM COMPUTING THERMODYNAMIC OBSERVABLES OF A CHEMICAL SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18347882 titled 'QUANTUM COMPUTING THERMODYNAMIC OBSERVABLES OF A CHEMICAL SYSTEM

Simplified Explanation

- The patent application describes techniques for determining thermodynamic observables of a chemical system. - The system includes a memory and a processor that can execute computer executable components stored in the memory. - One component is a potential energy component that fits a potential energy function to a computed potential energy surface of a molecule. - Another component is a vibrational mode component that computes an intramolecular vibrational mode of the molecule based on the potential energy surface. - A partition component is also included, which computes a partition function based on the intramolecular vibrational mode.


Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques regarding determining thermodynamic observables of a chemical system are provided. For example, one or more embodiments described herein can include a system, which can comprise a memory that can store computer executable components. The system can also include a processor, operably coupled to the memory, and that can execute the computer executable components stored in the memory. The computer executable components can include a potential energy component that can fit a potential energy function to a computed potential energy surface of a molecule. The computer executable components can also include a vibrational mode component that can compute an intramolecular vibrational mode of the molecule based on the potential energy surface fitted with the potential energy function. Also, the computer executable components can include a partition component that can compute a partition function based on the intramolecular vibrational mode.
