Description
Chairperson: Annika Stellhorn
In this talk, I will provide an overview of the current status of electronic structure theory applied to the field of (nano)magnetism. I will discuss how first-principles methods, particularly density functional theory (DFT), enable us to model a wide range of magnetic materials fully grounded in quantum mechanics. I will then address the challenges that arise when the relevant magnetic...
Atomistic spin dynamics bridges DFT calculations to many experimental probes. In this talk I will introduce the method and present a selection of results where spin simulations have proven more than useful for experiments. An overview of existing and possible correlation functions relevant for scattering experiments will also be provided. In addition I will also present the current state of...
