Summary on Grant Application Form
The primary purpose is the successful parallelisation of our computational chemistry code CADPAC specifically the quantum chemistry part (SCF, MP2,SCF, SCF, m, m, a, a (=derivative)) and the density functional part (KS, KS), including a part where the density for the coulomb potential is fitted. We have access to T3D m/cs and we have an experimental candidate. Our applications will be to the understanding of the properties of molecules absorbed on surfaces. We shall look at the properties of NxOy absorbed on Pd and Ag surfaces to connect with our surface science colleagues. We shall be looking at halogen molecules on a iron surface to understand the preference for 12, as part of our collaboration with BNFL. We shall also be looking at surface enhanced Raman intensities.
