Uwe Manthe

Uwe Manthe (born June 14, 1964 in Mainz ) is a German physicist and chemist . Manthe has been Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry at Bielefeld University since 2004 . He is one of the main developers of the time-dependent multi-configuration Hartree method ( MCTDH ). His research focus is the quantum dynamic description of chemical reactions on the basis of the flow correlation functions.

Life

From 1983 to 1988 Manthe studied chemistry at the University of Mainz and from 1988 to 1992 theoretical chemistry at the University of Heidelberg . In 1991 he wrote his dissertation under Lorenz S. Cederbaum on multidimensional wave packet dynamics based on electronic stimuli . From 1992 to 1993 he was a postdoc at UC Berkeley with William H. Miller . From 1993 Manthe studied physics at the University of Freiburg im Breisgau , where he completed his habilitation in 1997 and worked at the Faculty of Physics until 1999. From 1999 to 2003, Manthe had a Heisenberg scholarship at the Technical University of Munich . Since 2004 he has held a C4 professorship for theoretical chemistry at Bielefeld University.
