    Abstract: Hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) simulations are a powerful method for studying chemical reactions in condensed phases. This approach combines two levels of modeling: regions involved in chemical processes are treated using quantum mechanics, while the remaining parts of the system are modeled with molecular mechanics. This meth... Show More
