Nonadiabatic geometric phase of a pseudorotating triatomic molecule — •Ryan Requist and Eberhard K. U. Gross — Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, Halle (Saale), Germany

The geometric phase of a real-valued Born-Oppenheimer electronic wavefunction is a topological quantity depending on the winding number of the path around a conical intersection of the adiabatic potential energy surfaces in nuclear coordinate space. We report the calculation of a nonadiabatic molecular geometric phase that takes the full quantum mechanical motion of the nuclei into account through the exact factorization scheme [1]. Nonadiabatic contributions ``smear out" the point-like adiabatic Berry curvature, changing the topological invariant into a genuine path-dependent geometric phase [2].
