This script performs a representative Liouville von Neumann simulation by propagation of the density matrix. The quantum mechanical system used for simulation consists of three spins: electrons (A,B) and a nucleus (C). Only one of the electrons is coupled to the nucleus (A-C) with a hyperfine coupling specified by hfc
. The system is also subject to an external magnetic fields specified by B0
. The calculation runs for the time points specified by T
.
The code is intended to be used to learn about the basics of spin chemistry, not as a tool for simulation. It is heavily commented. To use it one should go though it line-by-line to understand what it does.
