By Rafal Weron, Wroclaw University of Science and Technology, Poland Although electricity price forecasting aims at predicting both spot and forward prices, the vast majority of research is focused on short-term horizons which exhibit dynamics unlike in any other market. The reason is that power system stability calls for a constant balance between production and […]

By Fernanda Duarte, Department of Chemistry, University of Oxford, UK Efficiently and accurately modelling chemical reactions in the condensed phase stands as one of the ‘grand challenges’ in computational chemistry. Although characterizing reaction energy pathways has become routine, the exploration of intricate reaction mechanisms remains a time-consuming and non-systematic endeavour, even for experienced computational […]

By Michele Parrinello, Italian Institute of Technology, Genova (Italy) The transition to a green economy depends critically on the development of efficient catalysts that could for instance help in sequestrating CO2 or producing H2. To reach this goal a detailed understanding of the catalytic mechanism would be of great value. Unfortunately, most industrial […]

By Volker Springel, Max Planck Institute for Astrophysics, Garching, Germany HITS Fellow 2018 Numerical simulations of cosmic structure formation have become a powerful tool in astrophysics. Starting right after the Big Bang, they predict the dark matter backbone of the cosmic web far into the non-linear regime and follow complex galaxy formation physics with […]
Come and join us for our Open Day at HITS on Saturday, 13 July, from 11am-5pm The Heidelberg Institute for Theoretical Studies will open its doors to the public again. The program includes science talks in English and German, presentations and hands-on stations, all showcasing the research of the Institute. One of the highlights this […]
