The recent development of computer graphics enables us to interactively generate and display various graphical objects with high speed and with high resolution. However, some more elaboration remains to be needed when we generate mathematically rigorous artworks and use them effectively. To generate them, some collaboration between interactive graphics software and some other mathematically refined computing tools tends to be needed. And to display them, well organized system to export the graphical output into several formats should be needed. The theme of this workshop is the effective unification of interactive graphics software and other related tools.

The purpose of this session is of collect works developed using the first principle of the quantum mechanics and oriented to the applications in different areas. Today, the solution of the Schroedinger equation does not
represent only the quantum description of atoms and molecules. Quantum mechanics, jointly with suitable computational strategies, is also an important tool that allows to design molecular structures with specific purposes.
For example, strategic areas of research, like biology, quantum computation, and nano-structured materials, are strongly dependent from theoretical studies.

 XIV International Workshop On Quantum Reactive Scattering

 

  

QRS 2017 

 

  Niyazi Bulut (Fırat University, Turkey), Noelia Faginas Lago, Andrea Lombardi, and Federico Palazzetti (Università di Perugia, Italy)

This workshop series started in 1990 as an informal gathering of theoreticians interested in the quantum description of reactive scattering processes. The organization of this edition of the workshop, initially planned to take place in Elazig (Turkey), was carried out by N. Bulut and collaborators and moved to Trieste with the same dates..
