Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron
  • Molecule

His main research concerns Atomic physics, Ab initio, Ab initio quantum chemistry methods, Intermolecular force and Water dimer. Ad van der Avoird works in the field of Atomic physics, focusing on Excited state in particular. His Ab initio research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Bound state, Perturbation theory, Interaction energy and Rotational–vibrational spectroscopy.

His Ab initio quantum chemistry methods study combines topics in areas such as Molecular physics, Computational chemistry and Binding energy. Ad van der Avoird works mostly in the field of Molecular physics, limiting it down to topics relating to Wave function and, in certain cases, Anisotropy, as a part of the same area of interest. In his research, Molecular symmetry, Quantum number, Total angular momentum quantum number, Van der Waals strain and Van der Waals radius is intimately related to Rotational spectroscopy, which falls under the overarching field of Intermolecular force.

His most cited work include:

  • Predictions of the Properties of Water from First Principles (300 citations)
  • Density functional calculations of molecular hyperfine interactions in the zero order regular approximation for relativistic effects (248 citations)
  • Density functional calculations of molecular g-tensors in the zero-order regular approximation for relativistic effects (220 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

Ad van der Avoird spends much of his time researching Atomic physics, Ab initio, Ab initio quantum chemistry methods, Scattering and Potential energy. His research in Atomic physics intersects with topics in Bound state, Potential energy surface and Intermolecular force. His Ab initio study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Perturbation theory, Interaction energy, Rotational–vibrational spectroscopy, van der Waals force and Binding energy.

His work deals with themes such as Water dimer, Spectral line, Molecular physics, Coupled cluster and Infrared spectroscopy, which intersect with Ab initio quantum chemistry methods. His studies in Scattering integrate themes in fields like Inelastic collision and Quantum. His Potential energy research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Dipole, Excitation and Parity.

  • Atomic physics (63.55%)
  • Ab initio (41.87%)
  • Ab initio quantum chemistry methods (29.56%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2015-2021)?

  • Atomic physics (63.55%)
  • Scattering (23.65%)
  • Ab initio (41.87%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Atomic physics, Scattering, Ab initio, Quantum and Inelastic collision. The various areas that Ad van der Avoird examines in his Atomic physics study include Potential energy surface and Diffraction. His study in Potential energy surface is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Spectroscopy, van der Waals force and Ab initio quantum chemistry methods.

Ad van der Avoird interconnects Molecule, Resonance and Potential energy in the investigation of issues within Scattering. His Ab initio research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Electric dipole transition, Orders of magnitude and Angular momentum. The study incorporates disciplines such as Intermolecular force and Absorption spectroscopy in addition to Molecular physics.

Between 2015 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Directly probing anisotropy in atom-molecule collisions through quantum scattering resonances (79 citations)
  • Update of the HITRAN collision-induced absorption section (47 citations)
  • Scattering resonances in bimolecular collisions between NO radicals and H-2 challenge the theoretical gold standard (32 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Electron
  • Molecule

His primary areas of investigation include Atomic physics, Scattering, Quantum, Potential energy and Molecule. The concepts of his Atomic physics study are interwoven with issues in Ab initio and Ab initio quantum chemistry methods. His study looks at the relationship between Ab initio quantum chemistry methods and fields such as Hamiltonian, as well as how they intersect with chemical problems.

His Scattering research integrates issues from Range, Inelastic collision, Resonance and Diffraction. Ad van der Avoird has included themes like Bound state, Parity and Full configuration interaction in his Quantum study. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Deuterium, Molecular physics, Energy and Scattering theory.
