Accounting for electron spin in user-friendly simulations of chemical reaction pathways
The electrons that swarm around the nuclei in atoms and molecules, not only carry electricity to our homes and offices, but also control how bonds are made and broken in chemical reactions. The challenge in describing this
Atom tunneling in chemistry
While macroscopic objects from everyday life follow the classical laws of physics, microscopic objects obey the laws of quantum mechanics. These quantum objects, such as light (photons), electrons, and atoms, show characteristics of particles as well as
