These properties are often of emergent nature -\u0026nbsp;that is, they are not commonly expected, or deduced, from knowledge learned at larger sizes. Through the development of\u0026nbsp;computer-based classical and first-principles quantum computations and simulations we highlight and demonstrate such behavior in diverse nanoscale systems. The research program illustrated in this talk is pursued at the Georgia Tech Center for Computational Materials Science (CCMS), with the aim of uncovering through the use of nanoscale computational microscopy the physical origins that underlie and govern the size-evolution of materials properties when small is different.\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EUzi Landman, Regents\u0027 and Institute Professor of Physics at Georgia Tech, presents his talk \u0022Small is Different: Nanoscale Computational Microscopy\u0022 as part of the College of Sciences\u0027 Frontiers in Science series.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Uzi Landman, Regents\u0027 and Institute Professor of Physics at Georgia Tech, presents his talk \u0022Small is Different: Nanoscale Computational Microscopy\u0022"}],"uid":"27310","created_gmt":"2014-09-17 11:50:46","changed_gmt":"2017-04-13 21:21:40","author":"David Terraso","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2014-10-02T20:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2014-10-02T22:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2014-10-02T22:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2014-10-03 00:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2014-10-03 02:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2014-10-03 02:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"46802":{"id":"46802","type":"image","title":"Professor Uzi Landman","body":null,"created":"1449174487","gmt_created":"2015-12-03 20:28:07","changed":"1475894433","gmt_changed":"2016-10-08 02:40:33"}},"media_ids":["46802"],"groups":[{"id":"1182","name":"General"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"4356","name":"frontiers"},{"id":"1631","name":"landman"},{"id":"382","name":"nanoscience"},{"id":"960","name":"physics"},{"id":"167040","name":"science"},{"id":"2251","name":"uzi"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[{"id":"78751","name":"Undergraduate students"},{"id":"78761","name":"Faculty\/Staff"},{"id":"78771","name":"Public"},{"id":"174045","name":"Graduate students"}],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EDavid Terraso\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EDirector of Communications\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ECollege of Sciences\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:david.terraso@cos.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Edavid.terraso@cos.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
