Breakdown of the adiabatic Born|[ndash]|Oppenheimer approximation in graphene

The adiabatic Born–Oppenheimer approximation (ABO) has been the standard ansatz to describe the interaction between electrons and nuclei since the early days of quantum mechanics. ABO assumes that the lighter electrons adjust adiabatically to the motion of the heavier nuclei, remaining at any time in their instantaneous ground state.
