Zoltan Szabo was a well-known painter and watercolor instructor who taught workshops nationwide. He was among the first watercolor teachers to do so, and one of the fi
Clear and well-written, this text is ideal for the second semester of a two-semester course in quantum chemistry, or for a special topics course.. The first three chapters contain introductory material culminating in a thorough discussion of the Hartree-Fock approximation.The remaining four chapters describe a variety of more sophisticated approaches, which improve upon this approximation.Among the highlights of the seven chapters are (1) a review of the mathematics (mostly matrix algebra) required for the rest of the book, (2) an introduction to the basic techniques, ideas, and notations of quantum chemistry, (3) a thorough discussion of the Hartree-Fock approximation, (4) a treatment of configuration interaction (Cl) and approaches incorporating electron correlation, (5) a description of the independent electron pair approximation and a variety of more sophisticated approaches that incorporate coupling between pairs, (6) a consideration of the perturbative approach to the calculation of the correlation energy of many-electron systems and (7) a brief introduction to the use of the one-particle
a must in computationa/theoretical chemistry There is no cheaper introductory course to fundamentals of quantum chemistry. Should be in every (physical-)chemistry library.. Best bang for your buck So if you want to do computational quantum chemistry and you know your quantum mechanics already, this is the best book for you. If you are an amateur, try getting Levine or Atkins first, since they spend a lot more time on the math steps and make the material more transparent.This is the gold standa. learn basics of quantum chemistry A Customer If you are someone just trying to learn computational chemistry and if you have some background from Quantum Mechanics this book is for you. It starts with 2 chapters of review of quantum mechanics including matrix notations,spin operators,many electron wf etc.If you have not seen these subjects in q
