Laser-excitation of molecular systems within stochastic time-dependent current-density-functional theory

ORAL

Abstract

In this talk we investigate the excited electron dynamics of molecular systems due to laser excitation. The system dynamics is described within the recently proposed stochastic time-dependent current-density-functional theory [1,2]. \\[2mm] $[1]$ Massimiliano Di Ventra and Roberto D'Agosta, Phys. Rev.
