Andrey Rogachev: What Good Calculations Can Bring to Chemistry

Andrey Rogachev, Cornell University

Abstract:

Modern theoretical methods coupled with the continuously growing power of computers allow one to model structure and properties of different chemical system with remarkable accuracy and reliability. As my talk will show, judiciously applied, such tools can bring us much new information even about well-known molecules, and predict new properties and reactivity.
