Research Interests

An understanding of gas-phase reactions of ion-molecule clusters has been of fundamental interest. A combination of semi-empirical and ab initio electronic structure theory approaches, coupled with semi-classical trajectory and variational transition state theory calculations, serves as a powerful tool and provides meaningful predictions/explanations of the stabilities of various small ion-molecule clusters, as well as insights into their possible reactions. Computational simulation of the motion of macromolecules is often used as an instrument in studying both the conformational and dynamic properties of polymers.
