Neudecker Group

Welcome

In the Neudecker (formerly Stauch) group we focus on Theoretical and Computational Chemistry. We develop and apply quantum chemical methods for the calculation of spectroscopic properties of molecules under various external influences (e.g. mechanical force, pressure, temperature). Please refer to the Research page for more details.

In his new paper, Felix presents an algorithm for conformational sampling under high pressure. The method is implemented in CREST and can therefore be used freely. Many thanks to Philipp Pracht from the University of Heidelberg for this great cooperation.

Ilkim defends her Bachelor’s thesis and is now B.Sc. Ilkim Czech. Congratulations!

 

January 27, 2025

In their new paper, Jonas, Rahel and Felix present a method for making high-pressure simulations with X-HCFF more consistent. For this purpose, they have developed a scaling factor for the nuclear gradient that makes the dependence on empirical parameters almost completely disappear. Congratulations, you three, on this great paper.

 

January 20, 2025

Today, Annelene begins her research internship in our group, in which she will work on pressure-induced chemical reactions. Welcome, Annelene.
