Research Interests
Atomistic simulations of defect structures in bcc metals. Computer simulations of classical and quantum systems using molecular dynamics and quantum molecular dynamics methods. Electronic and magnetic properties of actinides. Algorithm development on massively parallel processor platforms.
Personal Background
Lin Yang received his Ph.D in Physics from the University of California at Davis. In 1989 he went to Argonne National Laboratory as a Postdoctoral Fellow where he studied the localization behavior of a mixed quantum-classical system using time-dependent density functional theory. He then joined H-Division at LLNL in 1991. Being a member of the former Electronic Structure Group and the current Metals and Alloys Group at H-Division, he has developed the plane-wave pseudopotential quantum molecular dynamics simulation code and the Green's function molecular dynamics method on massively parallel processor platforms. His primary research interest is to study defect properties in technologically important materials.
