Christof Hättig

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Christof Hättig (* 1967 in Mainz ) is a German theoretical chemist at the Ruhr University Bochum .

Life

Hättig studied chemistry at the Rheinische Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität Bonn . He received his doctorate in 1995 under Bernd Artur Heß in theoretical chemistry on the development, implementation and application of a correlation method for frequency-dependent polarizabilities. He then worked for a year as an assistant to Bernd Artur Hess. In 1996 he moved to Aarhus University in Poul Jørgensen's groupwhere he worked first as a postdoc and later as a Forskningsadjunkt (Assistant Research Professor) on the further development of the Coupled Cluster Response Theory and its implementation in the Dalton quantum chemistry package. From 1999 to 2006, Hättig was initially a research assistant and later head of a junior research group at the Institute for Nanotechnology at the Karlsruhe Research Center . Hättig completed his habilitation in theoretical chemistry at the University of Karlsruhe (TH) in 2003 with a thesis on coupled cluster methods for calculating nonlinear optical properties and excited states of molecules .

Since 2006 Hättig has been a university professor at the Ruhr University in Bochum, where he heads the quantum chemistry group.

In 2007 Hättig was one of the founders of TURBOMOLE GmbH.
