Max Planck and the Birth of Quantum Mechanics
In the early evening of Sunday, October 7, 1900—120 years ago—Max Planck found the functional form of the curve that we now know as the Planck distribution of black-body radiation. By my account, it was the birthdate of quantum mechanics. A few hours earlier…

The first room-temperature superconductor has finally been found
A compound of carbon, hydrogen and sulfur conducts electricity without resistance up to 15° C, but there’s a catch: It works only under high pressure.

In an article recently published in Physical Review Research, we show how deep learning can help solve the fundamental equations of quantum mechanics for real-world systems. Not only is this an important fundamental scientific question, but it also could…
Webinar: New Horizons in Scientific Software
"New Horizons in Scientific Software: from Legacy Codes to Modular Environments"
https://www.edison.re.kr/web/nhiss/
It is our great pleasure to invite you to participate in the web conference taking place
> from Nov 23 to Nov 26, 2020. This is the first conference in a series dedicated to the
development and application of modular computational platform for the general science
and technology community. As the old-fashioned approach to developing and
maintaining computational programs becomes obsolete, an emerging concept of
software modularity offers an elegant and timely solution of the looming problems
by providing an open development ecosystem where new computational approaches
can be rapidly created from modules uploaded at the web repository by the interested
users and developers.
We have more than 20 world-renowned speakers such as Prof. Mark Gordon (ISU),
T. Daniel Crawford (Virginia Tech.), Massimo Olivucci (University of Siena),
Garnet Chan (Caltech) and others, who are actively developing the most popular
quantum mechanical software, such as GAMESS, Psi4, pySCF, Molcas, Columbus,
Newton-X, DCDFTBMD, Gellan, Libint, etc.
A free registration is now open as a first-come-first-serve basis with a limit of 500 participants
