Electron Density

Electron density, a fundamental quantity describing the probability of finding electrons at a given location in a system, is crucial for understanding the properties of atoms, molecules, and materials. Current research focuses on accurately and efficiently predicting electron density using machine learning, employing architectures like equivariant neural networks and graph neural networks to capture the complex spatial relationships and symmetries inherent in these systems. These advancements improve the accuracy and speed of electronic structure calculations, impacting fields ranging from materials science and drug discovery to plasma physics and cosmology by enabling faster simulations and more accurate predictions of material properties. The development of physics-informed machine learning models further enhances the accuracy and interpretability of these predictions.
