About NWChem

NWChem is optimised for large-scale simulations on modern HPC systems, enabling the study of complex chemical phenomena. Its modular architecture allows for continuous improvement, making it a trusted tool for high-accuracy computational chemistry in both isolated molecules and extended materials. It includes a range of quantum mechanical methods such as Density Functional Theory (DFT), Hartree-Fock and post-Hartree-Fock approaches.
