Signatures of molecular chirality in the electron cloud (C04)

• Subject Area: Optics, Quantum Optics and Physics of Atoms, Molecules and Plasmas ; Theoretical Chemistry: Electronic Structure, Dynamics, Simulation
• Term: since 2018
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 328961117

Theoretical approaches that take the relevant fundamental interactions into account are developed and ap-plied primarily to i) establish new routes to assign the absolute configuration of chiral molecules in the gas phase as well as to ii) identify candidate systems and describe their properties to pave the way for suc-cessful precision experiments with chiral molecules, which contribute as highly sensitive probes to funda-mental physics.
