Anne Bowen McCoy is a theoretical chemist and her research interests include vibrational spectroscopy, hydrogen bonding, and charge-transfer bands.
McCoy received her BS in chemistry from Haverford College in 1987. She worked with Edwin L. Sibert at University of Wisconsin–Madison and received her PhD in 1992. McCoy was a Golda Meir postdoctoral fellow with R. Benny Gerber at Hebrew University of Jerusalem and University of California, Irvine. [1] [2]
McCoy joined the department of chemistry at Ohio State University as assistant professor in 1994. She received tenure and was promoted to associate professor in 2000, and was promoted to professor in 2004. [1]
McCoy moved to the University of Washington in 2015 and is currently the Natt-Lingafelter Professor of Chemistry. [3] She was appointed a co-editor of the journal Annual Review of Physical Chemistry as of 2023. [4]
McCoy's research focuses on developing methods to study fundamental phenomena such as hydrogen bonds and quantum delocalization, [5] using techniques such as solvent-induced electron transfer, and applying theoretical vibrational spectroscopy to understand dynamics. [6]
Sir David Charles Clary, FRS is a British theoretical chemist. He was president of Magdalen College, Oxford, from 2005 to 2020. He was the first chief scientific adviser to the Foreign and Commonwealth Office from 2009 to 2013. He is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of Oxford.
Joel Mark Bowman is an American physical chemist and educator. He is the Samuel Candler Dobbs Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at Emory University.
Lithium superoxide is an unstable inorganic salt with formula LiO2. A radical compound, it can be produced at low temperature in matrix isolation experiments, or in certain nonpolar, non-protic solvents. Lithium superoxide is also a transient species during the reduction of oxygen in a lithium–air galvanic cell, and serves as a main constraint on possible solvents for such a battery. For this reason, it has been investigated thoroughly using a variety of methods, both theoretical and spectroscopic.
Anna Igorevna Krylov is the USC Associates Chair in Natural Sciences and Professor of Chemistry at the University of Southern California (USC). Working in the field of theoretical and computational quantum chemistry, she is the inventor of the spin-flip method. Krylov is the president of Q-Chem, Inc. and an elected member of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science, the Academia Europaea, and the American Academy of Sciences and Letters.
Veronica Vaida is a Romanian-Hungarian-American chemist and professor at the University of Colorado Boulder. She is an expert in environmental chemistry and aerosols.
Timothy P. Lodge is an American polymer scientist.
In chemical kinetics, the Aquilanti–Mundim deformed Arrhenius model is a generalization of the standard Arrhenius law.
The Polanyi Medal is a biennial award of the Royal Society of Chemistry for outstanding contributions to the field of gas kinetics. The medal is presented at the International Symposium on Gas Kinetics after a plenary lecture given by the prize winner.
Hind Al-Abadleh is a professor of chemistry at Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario, Canada. She studies the physical chemistry of environmental interfaces, aerosols and climate change.
Jacqueline Manina Cole is the Head of the Molecular Engineering group in the Cavendish Laboratory at the University of Cambridge. Her research considers the design of functional materials for optoelectronic applications.
William Morgan Jackson is a Distinguished Research and Emeritus Professor of Chemistry at University of California, Davis and pioneer in the field of astrochemistry. His work considers cometary astrochemistry and the development of laser photochemistry to understand planetary atmospheres. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Physical Society and the American Chemical Society. In addition to contributing research work, he is notable as a mentor and advocate for increasing minority participation in science, and was one of the founders of the National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers (NOBCChE).
Mario Barbatti is a Brazilian physicist, computational theoretical chemist, and writer. He is specialized in the development and application of mixed quantum-classical dynamics for the study of molecular excited states. He is also the leading developer of the Newton-X software package for dynamics simulations. Mario Barbatti held an A*Midex Chair of Excellence at the Aix Marseille University between 2015 and 2019, where he is a professor since 2015.
Radium fluoride is an inorganic compound with a chemical formula of RaF2. This salt, like all radium compounds, is highly radioactive. It can be coprecipitated with lanthanide fluorides. Radium fluoride has the same crystal form as calcium fluoride (fluorite). However, calculations suggest that radium fluoride vapor consists of RaF2 molecules, with a bond angle of 118°, due to substantial covalent interaction within the molecule.
Wolfgang Stahl was a German spectroscopist. He was a professor at the RWTH Aachen University.
Alexander I. Boldyrev was a Russian-American computational chemist and R. Gaurth Hansen Professor at Utah State University. Professor Boldyrev is known for his pioneering works on superhalogens, superalkalis, tetracoordinated planar carbon, inorganic double helix, boron and aluminum clusters, and chemical bonding theory, especially aromaticity/antiaromaticity in all-metal structures, and development of the Adaptive Natural Density Partitioning (AdNDP) method.
Hilkka Inkeri Kenttämaa is a researcher in organic and bioorganic mass spectrometry, and the Frank Brown Endowed Distinguished Professor of Chemistry at Purdue University. She is a pioneer in distonic radical cation research and laser-induced acoustic desorption.
William A. Lester, Jr. is an American chemist who is a professor of the graduate school at the University of California, Berkeley. He was awarded the National Organization for the Professional Advancement of Black Chemists and Chemical Engineers Percy L. Julian Award in 1979 and elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 2001.
Peter Malcolm Wallace Gill is a New Zealand theoretical and computational chemist known for his contribution to density functional theory (DFT).
