Teaching and Learning with the MIT Atomic Scale Modeling Toolkit - Classical and Quantum Atomic Modeling

Explore practical applications of the MIT Atomic-Scale Modeling Toolkit in this comprehensive 59-minute webinar led by Dr. Enrique Guerrero from the University of California, Merced. Dive into live demonstrations of classical and quantum mechanical simulation modules, including molecular dynamics computations using LAMMPS, simple Monte Carlo simulations with the Ising model, and quantum chemistry and density functional theory computations. Learn how to compute phonons and Raman spectra using density functional perturbation theory. Discover pathways to implement this toolkit in various classroom settings, such as computational chemistry, materials physics, solid state physics, or statistical physics. Focus on the practical use of the tool across a broad range of modules, familiarizing yourself with its capabilities. The webinar covers topics like getting started with the toolkit, classical molecular dynamics with Lennard-Jones potentials, carbon nanostructures, revisiting ESPRESSO for phonon calculations, and classical Monte Carlo simulations.
