Event Description
Organizer: Roberto Car
Nucleation phenomena in materials, relaxation processes in glasses, and large-scale conformational changes in macromolecules involve collective motions of many particles that occur rarely on the time scale of the atomic dynamics. Understanding and predicting these processes poses great theoretical challenges. This workshop intends to provide an overview of the field and stimulate the discussion on the guiding principles that govern this large class of phenomena.
