?? One key aspect of the COSY COST ACTION CA21101 network is to deal with new approaches to metal cluster-support interactions. What's happen if conical intersections are embedded in these interactions requiring a multi-reference description??In the paper from the PCCP collection 'Celebrating International Women’s day 2025: Women in physical chemistry', Physical #RSCPhys#RSCPhys, we apply the multi-reference (internally contracted) Rayleigh Schr?dinger (second-order) perturbation (RS2C) method by Celani and Werner (https://lnkd.in/dc3gFvkp) to the Cu3-benzene case, encompassing Jahn-Teller effects, and correcting the typical overestimation of the dispersion contribution at second-order perturbation theory level through a simple scheme. The approach can be viewed as the extension of the coupled MP2 method by Pinotak and Hesselmann (https://lnkd.in/ddtyvKBi ) to a RS2C-based description. If you are interested, have a look at the paper by Katarzyna M. Krupka and myself: https://lnkd.in/eXZxHDiK

There's still time to submit to our cross-RSC collection, in support of LatinXChem, celebrating Latin American research from across the chemical sciences! Find out more about the collection, including participating journals and how to submit, on our blog ?? https://lnkd.in/eNECNZ9U

We're delighted to announce that Duncan Graham has been appointed as Editor-in-Chief of our companion journal, Chemical Society Reviews! ?? Check out the video below where Duncan speaks about taking the role of Editor-in-Chief and his ambitions for the journal. "We want to be known as an influential journal within the chemistry community, articulating future directions, using key opinion leaders to set out those directions and give critical appraisals, but also to jump on new trends and to champion where areas are going to be important for addressing societal challenges, such as energy challenges, climate change, sustainability. All of these topics are hugely important, and?ChemSocRev?can be of huge impact and benefit to humankind and society at large." Find out more on our webpage ?? https://lnkd.in/etaPXD7X
