Drs. Stefano Racioppi and Francesco Sessa have joined the group to further our development of chemical bonding analysis!
Six Batchelor students have also joined us to study electron localization in molecules: Lova Wilske, Cecilia Bustrén, Alexander Andersson, Max Delvret, Pontus Havström and Henrik Skoglund.
Welcome!
To round off the year, interested readers can find a popular science summary of our most recent work on electronegativity here (the article is available in both English and in Swedish).
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
The new scale is derived from photoionization data and ab initio calculated energies and provides hints for new alloy/compound designs.

Within the the EU QT-Flagship, the OpenSuperQ consortium will build a cloud-based superconducting quantum computer. As part of this effort, we are currently seeking a Postdoc in Computational Quantum Chemistry, who will work in the Chalmers team modelling physical systems on quantum computers. The aim is to develop algorithms for calculating the electronic structure and energy surfaces of molecules of relevance to prebiotic chemistry, beginning with water and hydrogen cyanide, and to run them on the available simulated and physical quantum hardware. The calculations will benchmark quantum computers and provide tests of quantum advantage and quantum superiority.
Deadline for the application is January 31. Interested candidates can apply here.
