Big news for the group.
We have been awarded a three-year NSF grant to implement the constrained multicomponent formalism using coupled-cluster theory and apply the methods to study vibrationally averaged properties of astrochemically relevant small molecules. Gabbie has been working hard on this well before we received the grant and we hope to have initial results soon.
We have also been awarded a three-year AFOSR grant to implement connected-triple contributions in polaritonic coupled-cluster theory. This grant is in collaboration with the Suits group. Their group will be performing exciting cavity ring-down spectroscopy experiments to detect molecular polaritons in the gas phase that we hope to interpret with out new theoretical methods.
Exciting times!
