Venue: Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain. From: September 1, 2009 to: May 31, 2010
| Andreas Pedersen started his PhD (Computational Chemistry) in October 2004 at the University of Iceland in Jonssons Research Group. His supervisor is Professor Hannes Jonsson from University of Iceland. Jakob Schiøtz from CAMD serves as co-supervisor. The subjects for his research are the time scale problem and storage of hydrogen. The time scale problem is due to a discrepancy between the time scale accessible in experiments and in atomistic simulations. In order to get a better understanding of hydrogen storage he was simulating the behavior of hydrogen at different defects in metals. The simulations are done with the distributed program suite known as EON maintained by Graeme Henkelman and a new reimplemented version. His project, together with Prof. Ana Inés Gómez de Castro, consists of simulating astrophysical models of the electrons produced by collisions between UV-radiation and interstellar materials About his work: "My professional interest is computational physics and chemistry. It is mainly algorithm development and methodology that catch my interest. My main experience doing simulations covers:
My main experince methodology wise is:
