Download or read book Electron Correlations in Molecules and Solids written by Peter Fulde and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1995 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Electron Correlations in Molecules and Solids bridges the gap between quantum chemistry and solid-state theory. In the first half of the text new concepts are developed for treating many-body and correlation effects, combining standard quantum chemical methods with projection techniques, Greens-function methods and Monte-Carlo techniques. The second half deals with applications of the theory to molecules, semiconductors, transition metals, heavy-fermion systems, and the new high-Tc superconducting materials.
