The sorption of radionuclides by graphene oxides synthesized by different methods was studied through a combination of batch experiments with characterization by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques such as X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), attenuated total reflection fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR), high-energy resolution fluorescence detected X-Ray absorption spectroscopy (HERFD-XANES), extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM).

We investigated the electronic and structural properties of the infinite linear carbon chain (carbyne) using density functional theory (DFT) and the random phase approximation (RPA) to the correlation energy. The studies are performed in vacuo and fo r carbyne inside a carbon nano tube (CNT). In the vacuum, semi-local DFT and RPA predict bond length alternations of about 0.04 {AA} and 0.13 {AA}, respectively. The frequency of the highest optical mode at the $Gamma$ point is 1219 cm$^{-1}$ and about 2000 cm$^{-1}$ for DFT and the RPA. Agreement of the RPA to previous high level quantum chemistry and diffusion Monte-Carlo results is excellent. For the RPA we calculate the phonon-dispersion in the full Brillouine zone and find marked quantitative differences to DFT calculations not only at the $Gamma$ point but also throughout the entire Brillouine zone. To model carbyne inside a carbon nanotube, we considered a (10,0) CNT. Here the DFT calculations are even qualitatively sensitive to the k-points sampling. At the limes of a very dense k-points sampling, semi-local DFT predicts no bond length alternation (BLA), whereas in the RPA a sizeable BLA of 0.09 {AA} prevails. The reduced BLA leads to a significant red shift of the vibrational frequencies of about 350 cm$^{-1}$, so that they are in good agreement with experimental estimates. Overall, the good agreement between the RPA and previously reported results from correlated wavefunction methods and experimental Raman data suggests that the RPA provides reliable results at moderate computational costs. It hence presents a useful addition to the repertoire of correlated wavefunction methods and its accuracy clearly prevails for low dimensional systems, where semi-local density functionals struggle to yield even qualitatively correct results.
Machine learning models are poised to make a transformative impact on chemical sciences by dramatically accelerating computational algorithms and amplifying insights available from computational chemistry methods. However, achieving this requires a c onfluence and coaction of expertise in computer science and physical sciences. This review is written for new and experienced researchers working at the intersection of both fields. We first provide concise tutorials of computational chemistry and machine learning methods, showing how insights involving both can be achieved. We then follow with a critical review of noteworthy applications that demonstrate how computational chemistry and machine learning can be used together to provide insightful (and useful) predictions in molecular and materials modeling, retrosyntheses, catalysis, and drug design.
The emph{semiclassical Wigner treatment} of Brown and Heller [J. Chem. Phys. 75, 186 (1981)] is applied to triatomic direct photodissociations with the aim of accurately predicting final state distributions at relatively low computational cost, and h aving available a powerful interpretative tool. For the first time, the treatment is full-dimensional. The proposed formulation closely parallels the quantum description as far as possible. An approximate version is proposed, which is still accurate while numerically much more efficient. In addition to be weighted by usual vibrational Wigner distributions, final phase space states appear to be weighted by new emph{rotational Wigner distributions}. These densities have remarkable structures clearly showing that classical trajectories most contributing to rotational state $j$ are those reaching the products with a rotational angular momentum close to $[j(j+1)]^{1/2}$ (in $hbar$ unit). The previous methods involve running trajectories from the reagent molecule onto the products. The alternative emph{backward approach} [L. Bonnet, J. Chem. Phys. 133, 174108 (2010)], in which trajectories are run in the reverse direction, is shown to strongly improve the numerical efficiency of the most rigorous method in addition to be emph{state-selective}, and thus, ideally suited to the description of state-correlated distributions measured in velocity imaging experiments. The results obtained by means of the previous methods are compared with rigorous quantum results in the case of Guos triatomic-like model of methyl iodide photodissociation [J. Chem. Phys. 96, 6629 (1992)] and an astonishing agreement is found. In comparison, the standard method of Goursaud emph{et al.} [J. Chem. Phys. 65, 5453 (1976)] is only semi-quantitative.
In LaAlO3/SrTiO3 heterostructures, a commonly observed but poorly understood phenomenon is that of electron trapping in back-gating experiments. In this work, by combining magnetotransport measurements and self-consistent Schroedinger-Poisson calcula tions, we obtain an empirical relation between the amount of trapped electrons and the gate voltage. We find that the trapped electrons follow an exponentially decaying spatial distribution away from the interface. However, contrary to earlier observations, we find that the Fermi level remains well within the quantum well. The enhanced trapping of electrons induced by the gate voltage can therefore not be explained by a thermal escape mechanism. Further gate sweeping experiments strengthen our conclusion that the thermal escape mechanism is not valid. We propose a new mechanism which involves the electromigration and clustering of oxygen vacancies in SrTiO3. Our work indicates that electron trapping is a universal phenomenon in SrTiO3-based two-dimensional electron systems.

The semiclassical Wigner treatment of bimolecular collisions, proposed by Lee and Scully on a partly intuitive basis [J. Chem. Phys. 73, 2238 (1980)], is derived here from first principles. The derivation combines E. J. Hellers ideas [J. Chem. Phys. 62, 1544 (1975); 65, 1289 (1976); 75, 186 (1981)], the backward picture of molecular collisions [L. Bonnet, J. Chem. Phys. 133, 174108 (2010)] and the microreversibility principle.
