Research Interests:

1.        The theory of chemical reactions.  The development of dynamical theories for the interpretation of the detailed quantum mechanics of isolated gas phase reactive collisions.

2.        Nonlinear dynamics of atomic scale processes.  Semiclassical theory of simple molecular and atomic systems.

3.        Mathematical methods for the reduction of large networks of chemical kinetics equations.

4.        Growth kinetics and characterization of multi-component nanoscale clusters.

5.        Application of methods in quantum chemistry, statistical mechanics, and molecular dynamics to the interpretation of molecular level phenomena.
