UNSW’s @laura_mckemmish shows us how to find aliens with bespoke basis set. #NZIC24 @UNSWScience @UNSWChemSociety
It is sad news of Prof Kamil Sarka passing. I was lucky enough to meet him at conferences and even more so to know his fundamental work on theoretical molecular spectroscopy 😥

Today's spectrle 😜
What @exomol molecule is this? Hint: it is a diatomic.
Sergey Yurchenko retweeted
"By comparing models based on opacities from the limited number of molecules available in 2008 with models based on a more extensive number of molecules available in @ExoMol, we concluded that limitation in the classical 2008-grid did not affect the accuracy of the models"🤔
Love to see this line in publications again and again: "The data that support the findings of this study are available from the corresponding author upon reasonable request."

I’m pretty sure this is an accurate one-panel guide to Spectral Modelling, be sure to let us know if we got anything wrong #Chemistry #Modelling #LondonFashionWeek
