Inhaltsangabe

Electron Correlation in Molecules – ab initio Beyond Gaussian Quantum Chemistry presents a series of articles concerning important topics in quantum chemistry, including surveys of current topics in this rapidly-developing field that has emerged at the cross section of the historically established areas of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Born in Aberystwyth, Wales and educated at Trinity College Cambridge, Philip Hoggan has always been French and British. After a mathematical chemistry background, he has studied a number of theoretical systems, with a DSc by research obtained in 1991 at Nancy, France on the way physical interaction between molecules and solid surfaces is a precursor to catalysis. This was treated entirely on the basis of Quantum Mechanics and applied, first to cis-trans butadiene isomerization on alumina and then a number of ‘organic’ reactions.
The first lectureship was at Caen, Normandy from 1992. This period led to some fundamental research of ab initio Slater electronic structure calculations for more than 3 atoms. The first related code STOP was published in February 1996 after much work by a postdoctoral fellow A. Bouferguène, now Professor at U Alberta. After continuing to study catalytic systems at Caen, from a theoretical viewpoint, Philip Hoggan was appointed to the Chair of Theoretical Chemistry in Clermont from May 1998. This is still essentially his teaching position, although research interests have switched to solid-state (surface) physics joining the Pascal Institute for physics in Clermont from 2005. This followed a visiting professor stay of 18 months at Tallahassee, Florida in Theoretical Physics.
Research emphasis has shifted from the STOP era (where the problem was solved by Coulomb Resolution in 2008) to Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC). The CNRS paid leave for a couple of years for Philip Hoggan to learn about this technique from Cyrus Umrigar, Julien Toulouse, Michel Caffarel and others. Of course, it eventually led to a project to calculate catalytic reactions on metal surfaces that was initiated by G-J Kroes (Leiden, NL) and his ERC in 2014. K Doblhoff-Dier arrived in Clermont for a ground-breaking research fellowship and each of us continues to produce very accurate work e.g. on hydrogen (production and dissociation on metals), as a clean fuel for renewable energy.
Now, in 2023 we enter the 400th anniversary of Blaise Pascal’s birth. He invented calculators, some of which are in the Clermont museum. It is wonderful to work in the institute that bears his name conducting QMC on catalytic hydrogen synthesis on super-calculators: the tools that trace their roots to his ‘Pascaline’.
Philip Hoggan is married and has twin daughters.

I was born in 1971 in Tatvan/Turkey, where I studied my primary and secondary education. In 1994, I graduated from the Physics Department of Faculty of Education in 19 Mayis University and in 1997, I completed my master dissertation named “Investigation of DEPT and 2D DEPT J-Resolved NMR of Some Spin Systems by Product Operator Theory”. I finished my doctoral thesis named “Combined Theory of Electric Multipole Moment Tensors and Application to Polyatomic Molecules” in 2000. I have been in Erlangen University in Germany as a researcher for 3 months and after this I was assigned to the Rize Faculty of Arts and Sciences in Black Sea Technical University as an Assist. Proffessor. In 2007, I became Assoc. Professor in Department of Physics in Atomic and Molecular Physics in Recep Tayyip Erdoğan University and worked in the same position until 2013. Same year, I became a Professor and started to work at Amasya University, Computer and Instructional Technologies Education Program of Faculty of Education and I am still working at the same university and department.
