Across
- 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)
- 4. A uniquely defined primitive cell in reciprocal space. The analogous object in real space would be Wigner-Seitz cells (2 words combined).
- 5. The date of our next periodic subgroup meeting (for example 'FebruraryTwentyFourth')
- 7. A quantum of energy or quasiparticle associated with a compressional, such as the vibration of a crystal lattice.
- 9. A mathematical object used to replace the complicated effects of the motion of the core electrons of an atom and its nucleus.
- 10. Points (plural) of high symmetry located on the uniquely defined primitive cell in reciprocal space (2 words combined).
Down
- 1. a wave of constant frequency and amplitude with wavefronts that are an infinitely long straight line (2 words combined)
- 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)
- 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.
- 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).
- 11. A quantum chemistry package written primarily in Python developed by Qiming and the Chan group.
