Benchmarking the performance of DFT functionals for absorption and fluorescence spectra of EGFR inhibitor AG-1478 using TD-DFT

Posted by klaurent Berkeley

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Sallam Alagawani, Vladislav Vasilyev, Feng Wang, , | Summary: Optical spectra (UV-vis and fluorescence) are sensitive to the chemical environment and conformation of fluorophores and therefore, are ideal probes for their conformation and solvent responses. Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) such as AG-1478 of epidermal growth factor receptor […]

Loopy Determinations of $V_ub$ and $V_cb$

Posted by klaurent Caltech

Kavli Affiliate: Nathan Lewis | Summary:We use loop induced processes like meson oscillations and rare b hadron decays to determine the absolute values of the CKM matrix elements $|V_ub|$ and $|V_cb|$ and compare our results to the standard determinations based on inclusive and exclusive semileptonic tree-level decays of B mesons. For many years there have […]
