UT-Knoxville REU-2007 Summary with R. Harrison
3 projects:
1) To write a Hartree-Fock program(calculate the energy of a Lithium hydride) in FORTRAN, then port this to a GPGPU. 2) Calculate the energy of C6 structures and determine their quadropole moments. 3) Make a model of an atom-like system with just a dipole, and a system with just a quadrupole. Then, adjust the charge(q) and the distance seperating the charges(a) to determine how large a quadrupole needs to be to bind an electron, and use the dipole model to confirm that the model is sane.
