Abstract
In this publication is presented a new treatment of conical intersection effects in molecular systems. It is shown that such effects, for a low enough energy, can be included in the ordinary Born-Oppenheimer approximation. A novel single-surface Schrödinger equation for treating the motion of nuclei results from this treatment. A method for solving this equation is discussed and it is shown that the solution is governed by a phase factor which is only reminiscent of the Berry phase but is different.
