Across
  1. 2. The author responsible for the theorem which states that the wavefunction of an electron within a periodic potential can be written as a periodic function multiplied by a plane wave. (Last Name)
  2. 4. A uniquely defined primitive cell in reciprocal space. The analogous object in real space would be Wigner-Seitz cells (2 words combined).
  3. 5. The date of our next periodic subgroup meeting (for example 'FebruraryTwentyFourth')
  4. 7. A quantum of energy or quasiparticle associated with a compressional, such as the vibration of a crystal lattice.
  5. 9. A mathematical object used to replace the complicated effects of the motion of the core electrons of an atom and its nucleus.
  6. 10. Points (plural) of high symmetry located on the uniquely defined primitive cell in reciprocal space (2 words combined).
Down
  1. 1. a wave of constant frequency and amplitude with wavefronts that are an infinitely long straight line (2 words combined)
  2. 3. A stochastic method used to solve the Schrodinger equation. Comes in various flavors, such as zero temperature, statistics of particles, continuum or discrete space, and finite # fo particles (three words combined)
  3. 6. A method for computing long-range interactions in periodic systems by rewriting the interaction potential as the sum of a short-range term and long-range term.
  4. 8. The scientist who showed in 1822 that some functions could be written a an infinite sum of harmonics. This gave way to a mathematical transformation used frequently in quantum chemistry (Last Name).
  5. 11. A quantum chemistry package written primarily in Python developed by Qiming and the Chan group.
