Positrons
• AnOparOcle of electron, e+ • Experimentally observed in 1932 by Carl David Anderson
• ProducOon by emission by β+ decay

Positrons
• AnnihilaOon of electron-‐positron pair – At low energies normally results in the producOon of 2 γ rays of 0.511 MeV
• Positronium – Bound atom like electron-‐positron pair
Positrons
• Positron emission tomography – Images of metabolic processes – Fluorodeoxyglucose (18F)
• Positron emission spectroscopy – Observe voids and defects in solids – AnnihilaOon rate of Ps is environment dependent
CalculaOons on positronic and positronium-‐ atoms
• Many different methods depending on the atom – SVM, SVMFC, CI∞FC, MBPT – Mean-‐field and DFT approaches have not predicted binding
• Two channels to calculate binding energies for positronic atoms
• Theory is currently ahead of experiment for atomic systems

Experimental Positron Binding • Current
disconnect between experiments and computaOon for systems with a positron – Experiments are very difficult
• Emphasis on annihilaOon rates that are enhanced by vibraOonal Feshbach resonances

Previous calculaOons on positronic molecules
• High level calculaOons for diatomics and triatomics
• Ab ini4o calculaOons with mean-‐field reference for amino acids and DNA base pairs
• Molecules with a dipole moment greater than 1.625 debye are predicted to bind a positron
• No explicit electron-‐positron correlaOon for larger molecules – Failure of ab ini4o methods for alkane molecules Koyanagi, et al. PCCP, 2013

RXCHF • High computaOonal expense
– Two-‐parOcle integrals for Hatree-‐Fock
– Three-‐, four-‐, and five-‐ parOcle integrals for RXCHF
– HCN, 6-‐31G(d,p) basis, # of non-‐permutaOonal unique integrals
• RXCHF: ~1.5*1012 integrals • HF: ~1.5*106 integrals • Previously all integrals stored in memory (> 12 TB)

• Last year: HCN, electronic pc-‐0 basis, 11s proton basis – 5 hours on 128 nodes.
• Faster integral code – ~105-‐106 speed up – HCN
• Last year’s calculaOon now in 6 seconds on 16 nodes • Direct algorithm
– Compute integrals on-‐the-‐fly instead of storing them in memory
• Memory required now similar to a Hatree-‐Fock calculaOon • HCN, 6-‐31G(d,p) electronic basis, 5s2p2d proton basis
– 39 minutes on 32 nodes
Recent RXCHF Improvements
RXCHF Positronic Atom CalculaOons
• Alkali and alkaline earth metal atoms – Couple 1 spin orbital for alkali – Couple 2 spin orbitals for alkaline
• Standard electronic basis sets • S-‐type basis sets for positron
– Diffuse – Even-‐tempered
• Different ansatz for correlaOon factor – G for alkali – 1+G for alkaline
