Foudhil Bouakline is a senior scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Multidisciplinary Sciences in Göttingen.
His expertise is in computational quantum molecular reaction dynamics.
In IRAstro, he develops theoretical models for the quantum description of driven dissipative vibrational dynamics of adsorbates on surfaces. The focus of his work is on the role of quantum effects such as tunneling, delocalization, and coherence in vibrational energy pooling and isomerization processes.
