The forum consisted of 26 oral and poster presentations followed by a discussion structure around questions and comments submitted by the participants (and others who had expressed an interest) in advance of the meeting. Quantum mechanics provides a theoretical foundation for our under- standing of the structure and properties of atoms, molecules and the solid state in terms their component particles, electrons and nuclei. (Rel- ativistic quantum mechanics is required for molecular systems contain- ing heavy atoms.) However, the solution of the equations of quantum mechanics yields a function, a wave function, which depends on the co- ordinates, both space and spin, of all of the particles in the system. This functions contains much more information than is required to yield the energy or other property.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46896908861591,"sku":"9781402017933","price":22432.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781402017933.webp?v=1770360363","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-fundamentals-of-electron-density-density-matrix-and-density-functional-theory-in-atoms-molecules-and-the-solid-state-9781402017933","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
