Abstract

This request is intended to adequate the computing infrastructure of the research group proposing the current demand and future prospects. On the scientific level, the main subject of the project is the study of molecular transients formed by interaction with electrons and positrons. The project aims for understanding mechanisms induced by electron capture dissociation in biologically relevant systems (biomolecules, radiosensitizers) and energy (biomass components). Also, will be developed and applied new theories and methodologies positronic systems, aiming at a better understanding of the rates of resonant annihilation in molecular gases. (AU)
