Theoretical Methods in Molecular Spintronics (TMspin)

Magnetic molecules and atoms studied by scanning probe microscope experiments and molecular transistors represent ideal systems to address the very foundations of the quantum theory of magnetism. The proposed workshop will gather both physicists and chemists to question what electronic structure theory to use for such systems. Hence, the most recent developments in ab-initio methods will be presented with a special focus on those that could describe correlation effects, excitations and complex structural details on equal footing.

Organizing committee:

Andrea Droghetti, Universidad del País Vasco, Donostia-San Sebastian (chair)

Ivan Rungger, National Physical Laboratory, Teddington, UK

Tim Wehling, University of Bremen, Bremen, Germany
