Summary on Grant Application Form
A consortium of six research groups is proposing to use the CRAY T3E to study a range of problems in the area of chemical reactivity, with particular emphasis on the condensed phase. Quantum chemical methods will be used based upon a range of efficiently parallelized codes. Hybrid quantum mechanical/molecular mechanical methods, which have been developed and implemented by consortium members will be widely used in the proposed research. The systems to be studied include drug-related transition metal complexes, enzymes - particularly those having metal centres, model biological chromophores, microporous catalysts, and metal complexes in solution. All projects need high performance computing resources which can be provided using the CRAY T3E at EPCC.
