antinature 0.1.1

Quantum chemistry package for antimatter simulations

Antimatter Quantum Chemistry (antinature)

A high-performance quantum chemistry framework designed specifically for simulating antimatter systems, including positronium, anti-hydrogen, and other exotic matter-antinature configurations.

Features

• Specialized antinature Physics: Dedicated algorithms for positrons and positron-electron interactions
• Relativistic Corrections: Implementation of relativistic effects critical for accurate antinature modeling
• Annihilation Processes: Modeling of electron-positron annihilation dynamics
• Quantum Computing Integration: Built-in Qiskit integration for quantum simulations of antinature systems
• Validation Tools: Framework for verifying results against known theoretical benchmarks

Installation

Basic Installation

pip install antinature

Installation with Quantum Computing Support

pip install antinature[qiskit]

Development Installation

For development purposes with testing tools:

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/mk0dz/antinature.git
cd antinature

# Install in development mode with all dependencies
pip install -e .[all]

# Run tests
pytest

Dependencies

The package has the following optional dependency groups:

• qiskit: Required for quantum computing features (Qiskit, Qiskit-Nature, Qiskit-Aer)
• dev: Development tools (pytest, black, isort)
• all: Installs all optional dependencies

If you encounter any test failures related to missing dependencies, please ensure you've installed the appropriate dependency group:

# For quantum computing features
pip install -e .[qiskit]

# For development tools
pip install -e .[dev]

# For all dependencies
pip install -e .[all]

Quick Start

from antinature.core.molecular_data import MolecularData
from antinature.utils import create_antinature_calculation

anti_heh_data = MolecularData(
        atoms=[
            ('He', np.array([0.0, 0.0, 0.0])),
            ('H', np.array([0.0, 0.0, 1.46]))  # ~1.46 Bohr ≈ 0.77 Å bond distance
        ],
        n_electrons=0,       # No electrons in antimatter system
        n_positrons=2,       # 2 positrons (equivalent to 2 electrons in normal HeH+)
        charge=0,            # Overall neutral (2 positrons balance -2 from anti-He, anti-H)
        name="Anti-HeH+",
        description="Anti-helium hydride ion (anti-HeH+) with exotic antimatter composition"
    )

print(f"Molecule: {anti_heh_data.name}")
print(f"Description: {anti_heh_data.description}")
print(f"Formula: {anti_heh_data.get_formula()}")
print(f"Number of positrons: {anti_heh_data.n_positrons}")
