Welcome!

Outline

Why FHI-aims?

Where Are We? (Community, Applications, New Developments)

A Particular Development: More Efficient Hybrid DFT(Florian Merz, Lenovo / MPCDF)

Why FHI-aims?

Vision: Quantum mechanics based simulations of real, complexmolecules, materials and their properties without a priori precision and accuracy limitations.

→ Algorithmic choices and priorities:

• All-electron• Non-periodic and periodic systems on equal footing• Scalability to large systems (thousands of atoms) without precision limitations• Seamless scalability from laptop to massively parallel and/or new HPC architectures

Critical choice

• Numeric atom-centered basis functions (accurate representation of occupied orbitals and densities)

Where Are We?
