Alexander Yu. Sokolov works in theoretical and computational chemistry, developing mathematical and computational methods to predict how molecules absorb and emit light, ionize, or behave when electrons interact strongly with each other and with magnetic effects like spin-orbit coupling. His work aims to improve simulations of excited electronic states, X-ray spectra, and photoelectron spectra for molecules and solids, providing tools that experimental chemists and physicists can use to interpret spectroscopic measurements. This research sits at the interface of quantum chemistry, physics, and computational method development.
