Antoine Georges to Lead New Center for Computational Quantum Physics Supported by the Simons Foundation
The Simons Foundation is delighted to announce the formation of the Center for Computational Quantum Physics (CCQ), in the foundation’s new Flatiron Institute, and the appointment of Antoine Georges as its director.
A new era is dawning in our ability to understand and control the behavior of materials and molecules. The CCQ will develop the concepts, algorithms and computational tools needed to handle many-body quantum systems and capture the quantum dynamics of electrons and ions in chemically realistic environments and make them available to the scientific community...
