摘要
We present a mixed quantum/classical model which allows an estimation of the quantum density of vibrational states in large anharmonic systems. The construction of the model is based oil the modification of the harmonic quantum density of states by using the evolution of the classical anharmonic mean energy as a function of temperature, computed from a classical canonical Nose simulation. The validity of the assumptions proposed in this model hits been tested for two 1-D and 2-D model systems for which exact quantum calculations are feasible.
