  2. 1808: “We are perhaps not far removed from the time when we shall be able to submit the bulk of chemical phenomena to calculation.” Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac (1778-1850)

  3. “The underlying physical laws necessary for the mathematical theory of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and the difficulty is only that the exact solution of these laws leads to equations much to complicated to be soluble.” Paul Dirac on Quantum Mechanics (1929). BG/L@RPI

  4. Why study water? Most important liquid on Earth One of the most mysterious substances known “Science Journal: The structure of water isn’t certain after all” -- from the Wall Street Journal March 10, 2006 Wernet, et al. Science (2004) Biology Atmospheric Chemistry Energy Technology Image source: www.cbs.cnrs.fr From Petersen and Voth, JPCB110 (2006)

  5. Some of water’s anomalous properties Density maximum at 4oC Many stable crystalline phases High surface tension Anomalously high transport of protons (H+) and hydroxide (OH-) ions

JCP82, 1400 (1982)]: Begin with a set of N square-integrable orthonormal functions φi(x) On an appropriately chosen quadrature grid {x1,…,xN} (position eigenfunctions!).
