Abstract
The time-dependent quantum variational principle is emerging as an imp ortant means of studying quantum dynamics, particularly in early unive rse scenarios. To date all investigations have worked within a Gaussia n framework. Here we present an improved method which is demonstrated to be superior to the Gaussian approach.
