Talk:Diabatic representation

replies: text: Those additions are greatly appreciated! Anyway, the pseudo-diabatization is sort of a reference to the paper JCP 77(12), 15 Dec. 1982 p. 6090 "Conditions for the definition of a strictly diabatic electronic basis for molecular systems", which suggests that in general this is not possible - in other words, that some sort of "approximation" is necessary. --HappyCamper 22:59, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

message: It seems to me that some of the statements in the introductory sections occur more than once. These sections should be cleaned of repetitions and merged. HC where are you?--P.wormer 16:11, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Merge first two sections 

message: I found this line and lots of others like it:
: 
: \nabla \mathbf{ \gamma + F_{12} = 0 }   •  \mathrm{ ==> }  • \gamma\left( \mathbf{q}|\Gamma \right) =  - \int_\mathbf{q_0}^\mathbf{q}\mathbf{F}_{12} \left( \mathbf{q'}|\Gamma \right) \cdot d\mathbf{q'}
: 
Look at how this is coded:
: \nabla \mathbf{ \gamma + F_{12} = 0 }   •  \mathrm{ ==> }  • \gamma\left( \mathbf{q}|\Gamma \right) =  - \int_\mathbf{q_0}^\mathbf{q}\mathbf{F}_{12} \left( \mathbf{q'}|\Gamma \right) \cdot d\mathbf{q'}
: 
This is lunacy.  I changed it to this:
: \nabla \mathbf{ \gamma + F_{12} = 0 } \cdot \Longrightarrow \cdot \gamma\left( \mathbf{q}\mid \Gamma \right) = - \int_\mathbf{q_0}^\mathbf{q}\mathbf{F}_{12} \left( \mathbf{q'} \mid \Gamma \right) \cdot d\mathbf{q'}
(I don't know what those dots mean, before and after the arrow, but I've left them intact.)
: 
This is coded as follows:
: \nabla \mathbf{ \gamma + F_{12} = 0 } \cdot \Longrightarrow \cdot \gamma\left( \mathbf{q}\mid \Gamma \right) = - \int_\mathbf{q_0}^\mathbf{q}\mathbf{F}_{12} \left( \mathbf{q'} \mid \Gamma \right) \cdot d\mathbf{q'}
Note: Only one set of math tags in this line.  And \mid is used, giving proper spacing.  There's no reason to set the "equals" sign OUTSIDE the math tags.  Nor the minus sign.  Nor plus.  But I found those done that way in many places in this article.  Notice how different the second "equals" sign looks.  This sort of thing can cause misalignments and other problems.
