Focus Area |
In our research, we develop methods for sampling pathways of chemical reactions that are initiated by the absorption of light. In particular, we investigate reactions that include rare events, which makes them occur infrequently on microscopic scale and thus it is challenging to simulate them. Our work aims at overcoming this issue by efficiently combining path sampling techniques for excited states and machine learning approaches with nonadiabatic chemical dynamics simulations. This project is part of the research platform ViRAPID. |
