A Construction Set with Just Atomic Nuclei and Electrons

Scientists from the Theory Department at the Fritz Haber Institute in Berlin are simulating chemical processes at surfaces and the structure and stability of biomolecules. Their calculations are based on "first principles", i.e., on natural constants alone. In order to carry out this work, they must develop sophisticated computer programs - but the effort is certainly worthwhile: their research results are accurate and enable them to achieve a highly reliable predictability
