AdvertisementChristopher Nolan's latest movie, "Oppenheimer," sees Irish actor Cillian Murphy play J. Robert Oppenheimer, the man responsible for leading the Manhattan Project and creating the atomic bomb for the United States during World War II. It also won seven awards at the 2024 BAFTAS, with Cillian Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. taking home awards for best actor and best supporting actor, respectively. As well as Oppenheimer's nuclear work, the film looks at the scientist's complex personal life, including his marriage to Katherine "Kitty" Oppenheimer, née Puening.

While Oppenheimer will always be recognized as the father of the atomic bomb, his early contributions to quantum mechanics form the bedrock of modern quantum chemistry. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation offers a way to simplify the complex problem of describing molecules at the atomic level. This field, known as computational quantum chemistry, has grown exponentially with the widespread availability of faster, more powerful high-end computational resources. Nevertheless, the application of quantum chemistry made possible by the Born-Oppenheimer approximation will continue to expand and improve. In the future, a new era of quantum computers could make computational quantum chemistry even more robust by performing faster computations on increasingly large molecular systems.
