General Time-Dependent Configuration-Interaction Singles I: The Molecular Case
Abstract
We present a grid-based implementation of the time-dependent configuration-interaction singles method suitable for computing the strong-field ionization of small gas-phase molecules. After outlining the general equations of motion used in our treatment of this method, we present example calculations of strong-field ionization of helium, lithium hydride, water, and ethylene that demonstrate the utility of our implementation. The following companion paper specializes to the case of spherical symmetry, which is applied to various atoms.
