Title: Local Electric Fields as a Model for Hydrogen-Bond Interactions

Abstract: Hydrogen-bond interactions play a central role in chemistry, influencing molecular structure, spectroscopy, reactivity, and dynamics across a wide range of chemical and biological systems. Despite their importance, describing the effects of hydrogen bonding in molecular simulations can require computationally...

Title: “Exploring Vibrational Features and Coupling in Metal-Metal Multiply Bonded Systems”

Abstract: From rhodium paddlewheels to iron-nickel and iron-iron hydrogenases, metal-metal cooperativity through metal-metal bonds have generated interest in the field of catalysis. Characterization of these metal-metal bonds most often take the form of Raman spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. While useful tools, the impact of the metal-metal bond on other groups of atoms in the structure, such as...
