- We present a novel semiclassical phase-space surface hopping approach that goes beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and all existing surface hopping formalisms. We demonstrate that working with a correct phase-space electronic Hamiltonian can capture electronic inertial effects during pure nuclear translational and rotational motion and completely eliminate (at least to very high order) non-adiabatic transitions between electronic eigenstates. This work opens many new avenues for quantitatively investigating complex phenomena, including angular momentum transfer between chiral phonons and electrons as well as chiral-induced spin selectivity effects.
