Previous Regular Research Support (Apoio Regular à Pesquisa) granted to the Applicant were essential for the research activities of his group, which experienced significant quantitative and qualitative improvement in recent years. The present Proposal has the purpose to keep and improve these efforts, as it should provide the necessary funds to adequate the computational infrastructure of…
This request is intended to adequate the computing infrastructure of the research group proposing the current demand and future prospects. On the scientific level, the main subject of the project is the study of molecular transients formed by interaction with electrons and positrons. The project aims for understanding mechanisms induced by electron capture dissociation in biologically rel…
This Research Proposal aims at evaluating positron affinities of polyatomic molecules (positron-molecule binding energies). Prof. Andrés Reyes (National University of Colombia, Visiting Researcher) developed in collaboration with Prof. Roberto Flores Moreno (Universdade of Guadalajara), the methodology Any Particle Molecular Orbital (APMO), which allows for studies of systems comprising m…

Understanding charge transfer processes is essential to estimate the performance of photovoltaic technologies. Although experimental production is on the rise, yielding increasingly efficient devices, predictability relies on theoretical modeling. In view of the scientificand economic value of organic solar cells, the project employs state-of-the-art techniques to contemplate multiple ste…
The proposal addresses electron interactions with the molecules 5-nitro-2,4-dichloropyrimidine (NDP), para-benzoquinone (pBQ) and 3-bromo-pyruvic acid (BrPyr). The subject falls within one of the main research lines of the IFUSP group, namely molecular-scale process of potential biological relevance, with special interest on dissociative electron attachment to radiosensitizing compounds. …
The Proposal addresses the 5-Chloro-Uracil (5-ClU) molecule using quantum electronic structure methods, motivated by the study of radiosensitizing molecules with potential use in cancer therapy. The overall goal is to introduce the student to electronic structure methods, exploring the ground and excited states of neutral and anionic 5-ClU. The study will consider the molecule in gas and …
The present Proposal focuses on positronium (Ps) scattering by molecules. The theoretical formulation of this problem is the subject of intense research and usually relies on linear combinations of amplitudes for electron and positron scattering. We propose to study available models for non-relativistic deuteron scattering to develop improved models for Ps collisions. In a subsequent step…
5-halouracils are biomolecules used as sensitizers in radiotherapy. Its great radiosensitivity arises from the interaction with low energy electrons (up to 20 eV), which are the most abundant secondary species generated by ionizing radiation in the biological medium. Electron attachment to molecules gives rise to transient anions, which may undergo dissociation. However, the underlying me…

The present Proposal would fund a sabbatical year for the Applicant, who has the intention to diversify his research lines. The idea is to develop molecular models relevant to organic photovoltaics, and to become acquainted with leading-edge computational techniques for electronic structure and nonadiabatic molecular dynamics co-developed by Prof. Mario Barbatti, who will host the visit a…
Electron-induced dynamics of molecules usually give rise to rich physico-chemical processes, by means of intermediate transient anion states. Usual theoretical descriptions of the dynamics of these resonant anions are still limited either to very small systems or to very simplified models. We have proposed a novel approach to the problem, based on the AIMS approach, in which the nuclear d…
