Discovery Early Career Researcher Award
Grant Activity:
Quantum studies of dissociative electron attachment to molecules
Purpose:
The ability to predict the outcomes of molecular collisions is a difficult, yet important, problem with many applications in science and industry. Recent work at Curtin University has led to the first complete solution of the electronic part of the scattering problem for collisions with the hydrogen molecule, a major breakthrough in the field. This project will build on this progress to accurately model the nuclear motion during collisions, which will enable the first calculations of molecular dissociation processes without the use of approximations. The data which will be produced is highly sought-after in fusion energy and astrophysics applications.
