Treffer: Gator: A Python‐driven program for spectroscopy simulations using correlated wave functions.

The Gator program has been developed for computational spectroscopy and calculations of molecular properties using real and complex propagators at the correlated level of wave function theory. Currently, the focus lies on methods based on the algebraic diagrammatic construction (ADC) scheme up to the third order of perturbation theory. An auxiliary Fock matrix‐driven implementation of the second‐order ADC method for excitation energies has been realized with an underlying hybrid MPI/OpenMP parallelization scheme suitable for execution in high‐performance computing cluster environments. With a modular and object‐oriented program structure written in a Python/C++ layered fashion, Gator additionally enables time‐efficient prototyping of novel scientific approaches, as well as interactive notebook‐driven training of students in quantum chemistry.
