The lab studies computational science and computer science, reproducing the quantum mechanics of electrons on computers.

AboutAbout the lab
Bridging computational science and computer science once again
The Yoshimoto Lab studies fields at the boundary between computational science and computer science, centered on first-principles electronic structure calculation.
Computational science has grown alongside the development of computers as a new scientific method, following experiment and theory.
Today, as the way computers work has become more complex, computational science and computer science need to work together.
The lab aims to provide education and research that help foster exchange between these two fields.
Key terms
- First-principles electronic structure calculation
- A method of calculating the behavior of electrons in matter using only the fundamental laws of quantum mechanics
- Computational science
- A scientific approach that uses computer simulation to investigate natural and social phenomena
- Computer science
- The study of how computers themselves work and of methods of computation
ResearchResearch themes
The lab conducts education and research in the interdisciplinary area between computational science and computer science, centered on first-principles electronic structure calculation. It develops computational programs that simulate the quantum mechanics of electrons.
