Authors Swapan Kumar Ghosh and Pratim Kumar Chattaraj
Publisher CRC Press
Year 2013

This second book in a two-volume set enables readers to learn how concepts from ab initio quantum chemistry and density functional theory (DFT) can be used to describe, understand, and predict chemical dynamics. It covers a wide range of subjects including the following topics:

  • Time-dependent DFT
  • Quantum fluid dynamics (QFD)
  • Photodynamic control, nonlinear dynamics, and quantum hydrodynamics
  • Molecules in a laser field, charge carrier mobility, and excitation energy transfer
  • Nucleation, quantum Brownian motion, and the third law of thermodynamics
