QMCPACK is a modern high-performance open-source Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) simulation code. Its main applications are electronic structure calculations of molecular, quasi-2D and solid-state systems. Variational Monte Carlo (VMC), diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC), orbital space auxiliary field QMC (AFQMC) and a number of other advanced QMC algorithms are implemented.
Ab initio quantum Monte Carlo solver for both molecular and bulk electronic systems. By using the geminal/Pfaffian wavefunction with the Jastrow correlator as the trial wavefunction, users can perform highly accurate variational calculations, structural optimizations and ab initio molecular dynamics for both classical and quantum nuclei.
