Quantum scattering, coherence, and spectroscopy

哈佛大学的里克·海勒在理论和计算化学计划的支持下，为量子相干、量子波传播、量子动力学和光谱学的理论研究开发了新的方法。将探讨六个相互关联的主题：纳米结构中的输运，多通道量子信号处理，零点能量，分子中的动态隧穿，邻近共振和超辐射，以及凝聚介质中的光谱学。这项研究的结果将使人们更好地理解分子和小器件的工作方式，并使设计、预测和控制它们的行为成为可能。

Rick Heller of Harvard is supported by the Theoretical and Computational Chemistry Program to develop new approaches for theoretical investigations of quantum coherence, quantum wave propagation, and quantum dynamics and spectroscopy. Six interrelated topics will be explored: transport in nanostructures, multichannel quantum signal processing, zero point energy, dynamical tunneling in molecules, proximity resonances and superradiance, and spectroscopy in condensed media.The outcomes of this research will enable improved understanding of the way molecules and small devices work, and will make possible the design, prediction, and control of their behavior.
