The density functional theory (DFT) is a recognised method for the calculation of electronic properties of materials. As such it can also be used for the calculation of energy loss near edge structures. Some care has to be taken since the DFT is intended f ...
We review in detail an ab initio methodology-Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics in the ensemble density-functional approach-able to handle molecular dynamics studies of metal surfaces in a computationally efficient and robust way. A summary of recent appl ...
A review. Ab initio mol. dynamics (MD) allows realistic simulations to be performed without adjustable parameters. In recent years, the technique has been used on an increasing no. of applications to biochem. systems. Here we describe the principles on whi ...
A review; time and length scales accessible to ab initio mol. dynamics simulations are necessarily limited. This is the price one pays for an "in principle" unbiased description of chem. reactivity. We address the problem of times scales focusing on the de ...
The range of chem. problems that are directly accessible to first-principles mol. dynamics simulations based on d. functional theory is extended with a novel method apt to accelerate rare reactive events. The introduction of a finite electronic temp. withi ...
We present comparisons of theoretical and simulation results for static and dynamical correlation functions for a very simple model of attractive colloidal systems, the short-ranged square-well potential. In the region of the phase diagram investigated, th ...
A biomimetic four-helix bundle with a binuclear active site (DF1), bearing Zn, Mn or Fe as transition metals, has been synthesized and characterized. The carboxylate bridged binuclear motif of DF1 resembles the active site of numerous binuclear enzymes, su ...
We add an effective atom-centered nonlocal term to the exchange-correlation potential in order to cure the lack of London dispersion forces in std. d. functional theory. Calibration of this long-range correction is performed using d. functional perturbatio ...

A review. Since the first mol. dynamics simulations of hard spheres by Alder and Wainwright in the fifties of the last century (Alder, B.J. and Wainwright, T.E. (1957) Phase transition for a hard sphere system, J. Chem. Phys. 27, 1208-1209), this method ha ...
