22–26 November 2021 «Computational Spectroscopy of Noncovalent Interactions: Workshop». The classes will be given by Dr. Svetlana Pylaeva (Postdoctorate Research Fellow, Dynamics of Condensed Matter, Theoretical Chemistry, University of Paderborn, Germany;).Dr. Svetlana Pylaeva (Postdoctorate Research Fellow, Dynamics of Condensed Matter, Theoretical Chemistry, University of Paderborn, Germany;).
In 21st century performing computational chemistry studies and interpreting the ubiquitous theoretical results has become an essential part of the everyday work of many researchers working in the fields of physical, organic and organometallic chemistry, molecular physics and others. For example, experimental spectroscopic methods go hand in hand with computer simulations, often providing atomistic detail information about systems under study.
During the workshop we will revise and provide necessary theoretical background for running quantum-chemical calculations of isolated and condensed phase systems, calculate their geometric and spectroscopic properties (IR, NMR, EPR). The participants will learn to use a set of computer codes (ORCA, CP2K), explaining structure of the input files as well as routines of computer simulations.
All participants should register for the workshop by sending an email to Prof. Dr. Peter Tolstoy (peter.tolstoy@spbu.ru).
The registration deadline is November 1st.
The exact time and place of the event will be set later on and emailed to all registered participants.
