Title
A reduced-restricted-quasi-Newton-Raphson method for locating and optimizing energy crossing points between two potential energy surfaces
Abstract
We present a method for the location and optimization of an intersection energy point between two potential energy surfaces. The procedure directly optimizes the excited state energy using a quasi-Newton-Raphson method coupled with a restricted step algorithm. A linear transformation is also used for the solution of the quasi-Newton-Raphson equations. The efficiency of the algorithm is analyzed and demonstrated in some examples.
