Target Problems
- Linear optical (i.e. electronic) response of molecules or clusters, also second-order nonlinear response.
- Non-linear response to classical high-intensity electromagnetic fields, taking into account both the ionic and electronic degrees of freedom.
- Ground-state and excited state electronic properties of systems with lower dimensionality, such as quantum dots.
- Photo-induced reactions of molecules (e.g., photo-dissociation, photo-isomerization, etc.).
- In the immediate future, extension of these procedures to systems that are infinite and periodic in one or more dimensions (polymers, slabs, nanotubes, solids), and to electronic transport.

Famous quotes containing the words target and/or problems:
“But this we know, the obstacle that checked
And tripped the body, shot the spirit on
Further than target ever showed or shone.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“The man who is forever disturbed about the condition of humanity either has no problems of his own or has refused to face them.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
