Atomistic Simulation Centre
We develop theory and computational methods for atomic scale modelling and simulation of hard and soft condensed matter systems of experimental and practical interest. We possess a wide range of mutually complementary theoretical and computational expertise: large-scale classical molecular dynamics; statistical mechanics; empirical and first principles electronic structure methods; quantum Monte-Carlo; classical and quantum nuclear dynamics; many body theory; measurement and decoherence; quantum transport. Moreover, we maintain core competences in high performance and parallel computing.
