Mary Ann's long collaboration with Berni Alder at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory was instrumental for establishing molecular dynamics as a key tool to study condensed matter systems. The event was introduced by a presentation on the early days of computer simulations in condensed matter physics by former CECAM director Prof. Michel Mareschal.
Watch the videos of the two parts of the event:
1. The early days of computer simulations in condensed matter physics by Prof. Michel Mareschal
2. A conversation between Mary Ann Mansigh Karlsen and Daan Frenkel
