  • Abstract
    When electrons and molecules collide, interesting-and sometimes useful-results follow. The paper considers how methods adapted to parallel computers can now predict the outcomes of collisions for rather large molecules, thereby opening a new range of processes to study. Before we describe how our method is implemented on massively parallel machines, we look at which steps in the formulation are numerically intensive. Also we discuss the organisation of the SMC program
