Standard time-dependent and time-independent computational approaches have seen tremendous success in their application to
reactive and inelastic chemical processes. However, their utility is generally restricted to small numbers of atoms, low levels of internal excitations, and/or reduced spatial dimensionality. While advances in computational resources continue, the dynamical
treatment of systems involving seven or so atoms is generally intractable without severe approximations for manifold reasons.
This one-day workshop brings together experts pursing other paradigms for chemical dynamics focused on three main themes: new algorithms and computing platforms (neural networks, machine learning, quantum simulation), alternative theoretical methodologies (quantum-semiclassical, kinetic theories), and nonstandard mechanisms and effects (roaming, geometric phase, external field control).
The following speakers are currently confirmed: Dmitri Babikov, N. Balakrishnan, Joel Bowman, Bob Forrey, Hua Guo, Roman Krems, David Neufeld, Phillip Stancil, and Timor Tscherbul.
The meeting will run from 1:20pm Friday to 1:30pm Saturday, with a poster session Friday evening. Inquires can be addressed to Phillip Stancil ([log in to unmask]).
