Atoms in molecules stabilizing energy derived from it is. Atoms in molecules The quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) is a model of molecular and condensed matter electronic systems (such as crystals) in which the principal objects of molecular structure - atoms and bonds - are natural expressions of a system's observable electron density distribution function. An electron density distribution of a molecule is a probability distribution that describes the average manner in which the electronic charge is distributed throughout real space in the attractive field exerted by the nuclei. According to QTAIM, molecular structure is revealed by the stationary points of
National Laboratory of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics spectroscopic databases such as HITRAN. The research of the ion group is focused on trapped molecular ions in the ion traps – relatively new branch of physics. Recent works in this field focus on the production, detection and cooling of the molecular ions. The trapped molecules are subject to spectroscopic investigations and as products/substrates for cold chemistry of single molecules. National Laboratory of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics National Laboratory of Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics (KL FAMO) is the national inter-university research center with the headquarters at Institute of Physics of Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń, Poland.
