| Citation | Paul Madden is distinguished for pioneering contributions to the theory and computer simulation of fluids, with particular reference to the dielectric properties of molecular liquids and the modelling of ionic systems and ionic melts. The power and elegance of his recent introduction of system specific density functionals for use in Car-Parrinello simulations have been demonstrated by application to the properties of metals, polarization effects in ionic systems and non linear counterion screening in colloidal suspensions. |
