Modeling: Chemistry and the Standard Model to analyze chemical structures.

Title:

Computer Chemistry Modeling

Objective:

The purpose of this project is to produce a piece of software that can 
accurately model and analyze chemical structures and interactions on an 
atomic level under a variety of environmental conditions.

Justification:

Many current chemistry modeling softwares perform computations slowly 
when provided with complicated input data. Furthermore, few are based 
upon complete versions of the Standard Model. This can introduce 
inaccuracies in output and incomplete algorithms. An optimized chemistry 
software, based on a comprehensive physics model would provide more 
accurate results and be more computationally efficient. This would lead to 
more productive work in applied fields, such as medicine or biotechnology, 
and also in theoretical fields as well, where it could be used to simulate 
conditions that are experimentally unachievable.

Description:

I will first research the workings of quantum physics and the Standard Model.
Next, I will incorporate the rules of the Standard Model into a physics model, 
which will form the base for the chemistry software. Then, I will research the 
principles of subatomic chemistry, which will build upon the physics model. 
Finally, I will build a user interface that will make the program easy to use.

Limitations:

The mathematics involved in quantum mechanics are high level and I may not 
have time to fully comprehend them.
After the completion of my program, I will have to test the accuracy by 
comparing results with both standard values and empirical data. Performing 
experiments to benchmark the accuracy would require the use of chemical 
and physics equipment, which could present budget and/or safety issues.
