Abstract

The main goal of this project is to create the computational infra structure for a new research group at the Physics Institute of Sao Paulo University. The computational facilities will allow for (i) studies of electron and positron collisions against molecules (ii); studies of vibration and dissociation dynamics in the complex potential energy surfaces of transient ons formed in these collisions; (iii) studies of resonant positron annihilation rates in molecular gases.
