Thermodynamics.Β 1.2.16 Non-linear physics
Thermodynamics.Β β For each process, changes in internal energy (U), enthalpy (H), entropy (S), and Xxxxx free energy (G) are calculated. In addition the zero-point energy (ZPE) is calculated. More details behind the derivation of the different formulae can be found in for instance the book by XxXxxxxxx and Simon1. For a temperature T = 0 K the following expression fully describes the energetics and thermodynamics of the system (neglecting configurational entropy): π = π» = πΊ = πΈππ + πΈπππΈ with Eel and EZPE defined in the previous section. For all temperatures T > 0 K expressions for the different quantities are given below. The internal energy is calculated from electronic and vibrational contributions (and also rotational and translational contributions for gas phase species): ππ ππππ = πππ + ππ£ππ
