My
work is mainly on electron collisions with molecules and molecular
clusters. Current research projects include:
the development an application
of a method based in Multiple-Scattering to the electron
collisions with molecular aggregates. The technique has been
successfully applied to the water dimer in various geometries
(see our recent publications for more information).
the application of the R-matrix
methodto the study of
electronically inelastic processes in electron collisions with
biologically relevant molecules. These molecules are bigger than
those we normally treat with the R-matrix method and this poses
some difficulties in the interpretation of the results. .
the re-engineering and development of a set of
high-quality, developer- and user-friendly, Atomic and Molecular
high performance computing codes to treat both electron photon interactions with polatomic molecules (UK-RAMP project).

Collaborators:
The UK-RAMP project is being carried out in collaboration with Jonathan Tennyson at UCL, Ken Taylor and colleagues at QUB and Martin Plummer from Daresbury Laboratory.
Stefano Caprasecca
finished his PhD with me in May 2010. He is now at the Dipartimento di
Chimica e Chimica Industriale, Universita di Pisa and we continue working on our
multiple scattering method.

Garcia and his group, with whom we are looking at providing cross sections
and stopping powers for track structure calculations.
