The group has participated in the ACO-DOC congress entitled «Chemical processes in Solar-type star forming regions» which was held in Torino 13-17 September 2021. It’s been a honor to attend this excellent conference. Meeting with friends and discussing with colleagues after this long time has been a real pleasure!

Scope: Simulations of Molecule Formation on Interstellar Grain Surfaces

Objectives: to simulate by means of computational chemistry and molecular modelling methods processes occurring on the surfaces of interstellar grains, in particular those that lead to the formation of astrochemcially-relevant molecules.

We have held the first official meeting of QuantumGrain with all the members. We have put together our lines of research to add efforts and synergies.

We tell you what are the initial purpose of our doctoral theses:

At the end of 2019 the European Research Council awarded a Consolidator Grant to Albert Rimola. Finally, the team that will work on this project is already complete.

Albert Rimola is the Principal Investigator of QUANTUMGRAIN.
