Scientific Topics

Core themes of the 12th Triennial Congress of the International Society for Theoretical Chemical Physics.

As is customary for ISTCP congresses, the programme covers the most relevant areas of chemical physics — inviting contributions from established researchers and rising scientists alike.

Electronic-structure theory

Wavefunction and density-functional methods, correlation, relativistic approaches and highly accurate calculations.

Response properties

Atomic and molecular response, spectroscopy and related theoretical developments.

Molecular & quantum dynamics

Time-dependent methods, quantum dynamics of molecules and reactive processes.

Catalysis & materials

Theoretical approaches to catalytic systems, condensed-phase and materials modelling.

Machine learning

Data-driven models, potentials and AI methods for chemical physics applications.

Quantum computing

Quantum algorithms and emerging computational paradigms for molecular science.

Novel phenomena

Emerging topics and cross-disciplinary frontiers in theoretical chemical physics.

Highly accurate calculations

Benchmark-quality theory for atoms, molecules and challenging many-body systems.
