  • The paper Ab initio electronic and optical spectra of free-base porphyrins: the role of electronic correlation by Maurizia Palummo, Conor Hogan, Francesco Sottile, Paolo Bagala', and Angel Rubio, was recently published in the Journal of Chemical Physics, where it made the front cover. It has been also identified on the list of Journal of Chemical Physics Top 20 Most Downloaded Articles in September 2009. In the paper, Yambo was used to apply the GW and BSE methods, traditionally used in physics applications, to a kind of system normally studied by quantum chemists by means of (the more computationally demanding) wavefunction-based approaches, namely, porphyrin molecules. Yambo yielded excitation spectra in good agreement with experimental data and with quantum chemical results, and thus offers chemists an alternative or complementary means for studying such kinds of isolated systems.
