David Tew

David Tew is an Associate Professor of Theoretical Chemistry at the University of Oxford, affiliated with the Department of Chemistry. His research focuses on developing theoretical methods and computational software to understand and predict chemical phenomena through computer simulation. His work includes advancing quantum many-body correlation and creating scalable numerical methods for solving quantum mechanics equations. He also explores quantum computing for simulating chemical systems and collaborates with global theory and experimental groups. Tew joined Oxford in 2020 after previously working at the Max Planck Institute for Solid State Research. He is a Tutorial Fellow of St Hilda's College and involved in Turbomole GmbH, an international software initiative.

David Tew is a chemical physicist at the University of Oxford, specializing in quantum chemistry and computational methods. His research focuses on developing and applying advanced quantum chemical techniques to understand molecular systems, including electron correlation, coupled-cluster theory, and explicitly correlated wave functions. He has contributed to the creation of new exchange-correlation functionals and has worked on quantum dynamics simulations using photonics. His work also includes the development of computational tools like TURBOMOLE and D alton, which are used for ab initio quantum-chemical simulations. Tew's research spans from theoretical developments to applications in atmospheric chemistry and molecular spectroscopy.
