Please join @PSUScience this Saturday, Feb. 1, as part of the weekly #AshtekarFrontiersofScience lecture series where @MuechlerLab will be giving a talk titled:
"How Chemistry and Physics Come Together in Quantum Materials"
Details below ⬇️
Very happy to finally have this out. This is the first step in our journey to systematically find ways to obtain thermally forbidden electrocyclization products. What makes this exciting is the the connection with second order saddle points and the potential use for photoswitches

We had the absolute pleasure of hosting Nobel laureate Stan Whittingham @binghamtonu this week for the Allcock Alumni Lectureship!!
Our faculty and students engaged in discussions about his work on lithium-ion batteries, and shared updates on our department's activities. ⬇️
Now in @J_A_C_S . When a microdroplet is out-of-equilibrium (e.g. solubilizing), partitioning of molecules (like surfactant) can take unexpected pathways.

New paper, congrats Chris! Also shoutout to Kaijie and Chaoxing for the collaboration. By bridging chemistry and physics, we dive into how the advancements from topological band theory can be harnessed to shed light on chemical reaction dynamics. https://t.co/Oy3RVJKNZ7.
🌟 Great honor for Prof. Claudia Felser! She is appointed to the Hall of Fame of German Research. Her contributions to Topological Quantum Chemistry are groundbreaking. 🌌🔍

Very proud to present the very first preprint out of the Muechler group!
@AmirMirzanejad is going to present this work today at ACS Fall, be sure to check it out: 03:20pm in room Room 23, South Bldg.

Had a great time at my first ACS and got to know a lot of really interesting people. Highlight was the session organized by @MarissaWeichman and @laura_mccaslin on dynamics, thank you so much for organizing this!
Excited to share our recent preprint on quantifying phase coexistence in nonequilibrium systems!
It has been a few years in the making.
Always a pleasure to work with @HyeongjooRow, Ahmad Omar, and John Brady!

It was great hearing about some wonderful science from @MuechlerLab today.
Stay tuned for more exciting theory talks, and if you’re interested in giving a @nutcss talk, reach out to @hartreefocker
