Peter Gill (chemist)
Peter MW Gill (born November 9, 1962 in Auckland ) is a New Zealand theoretical chemist ( quantum chemistry ).
Gill studied chemistry at the University of Auckland with a bachelor's degree in 1982 and a master's degree in 1984 and received his PhD from the Australian National University (ANU) in 1988 with Leo Radom . He researched and taught at Carnegie-Mellon University (1988-1993), Massey University (1993-1996), 1996-1999 at Cambridge University and 1999-2004 at the University of Nottingham before becoming a professor at the ANU became.
He created the PRISM algorithm for two-electron integrals, algorithms for linear scaling in DFT , self-consistent methods for excited states, a generalized local density approximation and exact solutions for two-electron systems.
He contributed to GAUSSIAN versions (from 1998).
In 2011 he received the Schrödinger Medal , in 2005 the Pople Medal of the Asia-Pacific Association of Theoretical and Computational Chemists (APATCC), in 2013 the Fukui Medal and in 1999 the Dirac Medal of the WATOC . He is a member of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science . He has been WATOC President since 2017.
