J. Stare, Structure and spectroscopy of hydrogen-bonded systems by advanced quantum-mechanical methods

Advanced computational methodologies in the field of modeling of hydrogen-bonded systems have been presented, mainly those based on the treatment of nuclear motion beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the solving of the vibrational Schroedinger equation. The computational study published and presented in this report as the third entry in the scientific achievement section (section 6) has been outlined in detail.

J. Stare, Periodic quantum mechanical calculations: a challenging supporting tool to crystallographic methods

We presented in this lecture the relevance of periodic quantum mechanical computational methods and their application as supporting tool for crystallographic studies. Among the examples we also stressed our studies of zeolites.

G. Pirc, J. Stare, Periodic QM methods as a supporting tool to crystallography: the titanium site preference problem in the TS-1 zeolite catalyst

Our recent periodic Hartree-Fock study of the Ti-site preference problem in TS-1 has been presented in this talk. More details can be found in the corresponding paper presented in Section 6 of this report.

J. Stare, G. Pirc, A fully periodical, all electron quantum-mechanical study of titanium site preference problem in the TS-1 zeolite catalyst

The poster presented at the international conference included an upgrade to the periodic Hartree-Fock study of the structure of TS-1 in that (a) the more reliable DFT method has been used, (b) the unit cell of TS-1 has been relaxed during structure optimization, and (c) lower-symmetry space groups have been employed, allowing for lower concentration of titanium. The presented results were on a preliminary level; the full study is near completion and will be published shortly.
