Abstract

The diffusion Quantum-Monte-Carlo method is applied to a set of coupled oscillators as a first approach to a polyethylene chain. The obtained energy eigenvalues are in good agreement with normal mode analysis. For chains shorter than 50 atoms a distinction between center oscillators and end oscillators is possible. For longer chains non-negligible deviations are discussed.
