The frontier orbital approach was further developed in various directions by my own group and many other scientists, both theoretical and experimental.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
This simple idea served to provide information on the geometrical shape of reacting molecules, and I was able to make the role of the frontier orbitals in chemical reactions more distinct through visualization, by drawing their diagrams.
I study orbital dynamics as a hobby. My idea of a good time is sitting down and drawing on that knowledge to imagine a space mission from beginning to end, getting as many details right as I can.
The classical example of a successful research programme is Newton's gravitational theory: possibly the most successful research programme ever.
I do not remember exactly when I became interested in astronomy, but I know it was at a very young age. I did organize an astronomy club for my friends at the age of 11. We would meet once a week to learn about the constellations.
People wanted to do science outside of classical institutions like universities or big corporations, so we embraced it.
I had studied at Harvard and MIT astronomy and a lot about the heavens and the star system and so forth.
The application of group theory to physics became one of the main branches of physics that I specialized in.
Around 1960, I moved back to Europe, attracted by the newly founded European Organization for Nuclear Research where, for the first time, the idea of a joint European effort in a field of pure science was to be tried in practice.
My first undertaking in the way of scientific experiment was in the field of economics and psychology.
I did a thesis in experimental nuclear physics under the direction of Samuel K. Allison.
