To find a task or panel by searching the text of the menu, the name of the task or panel, or its description, enter text in the search box at the top of the panel. You could use a variety of formulas for such a function, but often the exact shape doesnt matter, and its convenient to take the limit where the spike becomes in nitely narrow and in nitely tall to become a dirac delta function, denoted x x 0. A way to get a general solution of the schrodinger equation in the presence of a timedependent linear potential is presented using an invariant operator that is linear in both p and q, within the. Graphical user interface phase pharmacophore modeling prime protein structure prediction. Numerical solution of 1d time independent schrodinger equation using finite difference method. A moving particle such as a proton or an electron can be described as a matter wave. Presuming that the wavefunction represents a state of definite energy e, the equation can be separated by the requirement. The wave function is a function of spacetime that returns a complex number.
One functions via commands such as nprc placed in the. Wave resistance is fundamental to all classical waves. Minimize structure applications macromodel minimization. For information on using maestro, see the maestro online help or the maestro user manual. This greatly reduces the computational cost in computing the hessian of the phase function in the eulerian framework, yielding an eulerian gaussian beam method with computational complexity comparable to that of the geometric optics but with a much better accuracy around caustics. Before we take the giant leap into wonders of quantum mechanics, we shall start with a brief.
Macromodel, yes, yes, yes, yes, yes, no, i, yes, no, oplsaa, mmff, gbsa. Finally, jaguar enjoys a graphical user interface gui shared with multiple other computational software programs developed by schrodinger, such as glide and macromodel. The glide user manual is intended to help you perform ligand database screening and highaccuracy docking with glide. Online help for glide is available in maestro, although the information in this manual is generally more comprehensive. We interpret this as meaning that the wavefunction requires two components to describe it. A function describes a relationship between two values. Besides, jaguar is accompanied with a detailed yet legible manual. Antagonistperturbation mechanism for activation function2 fixed motifs.
Only the items that con tain matching text are shown in the tree. In general, the wave function behaves like a, wave, and so the equation is, often referred to as time dependent schrodinger wave equation. Macromodels combination of highquality force fields and gbsa effective solvation model leads to reliably accurate estimations of energies. A wave equation typically describes how a wave function evolves in time. Gaussian wave packet solution of the schrodinger equation. Wave function and schrodingers equation video dailymotion. Hold down left button and drag to select a group of atoms hold down middle button and move the mouse to rotate hold down right button and move the mouse to translate hold down left and right buttons together and move the mouse to zoom. Glide is run primarily from the maestro graphical user interface, but can also be run from the command line. Hbar is plancks constant, m is the mass of the particle, psi is the wave function, vx is the potential energy and e is the particles energy. Introduction to schrodingers software yuk sham feng chen center for drug design university of minnesota.
The schrodinger equation has two forms, one in which time explicitly appears, and so describes how the wave function of a particle will evolve in time. Soon after in 1928, dirac found an equation from the first. The use of the second derivative d 2 y in describing travelling dx 2.

The schrodinger equation, developed by the german physicist erwin schrodinger 18871961, is the basic relationship for determining wave functions and energy levels. The wave particle duality of the quantum mechanical description of matter is well known. In a series papers he describes his partial differential equation that is the basic equation of quantum mechanics and bears the same relation to the mechanics of the atom as newtons equations of motion bear to planetary astronomy.
