Local vibrational mode theory is a useful tool for characterizing chemical bonding and weak chemical interactions, and the open-source program LModeA can help! It’s designed to work with quantum chemistry packages, like Q-Chem, as well as measured spectra, to help lend insight to chemical systems from their vibrational spectra. Q-Chem Webinar 66, presented by Elfi Kraka and Marek Friendorf, covers not only the underlying theory that drives these methods, but also demonstrations of… Read More

Most quantum chemistry methods assume that all electrons remain bound to the nuclei, but how do we accurately model situations where this isn't the case? The answer can be found in non-Hermitian quantum chemistry. Interested in learning more? Check out Q-Chem Webinar 65, presented by Thomas Jagau of KU Leuven on August 25, 2022, which is now available for viewing here.

We are delighted to welcome two new members to the Q-Chem board, Dr. Yuezhi Mao and Dr. Joonho Lee. Yuezhi and Joonho are well-known to the Q-Chem developer community for their extensive contributions to Q-Chem code and infrastructure, which were recognized by the 2020 and 2019 Michael Wormit Awards.

Yuezhi received his B.Sc. in Materials Chemistry from Peking University in 2012, then moved to Berkeley to study with… Read More
