"We weren't planning on doing intensive computational studies, but once we were introduced to resources at TACC it opened our research horizons to collaborate with other groups within UT system and other parts of the country," said Tülay. "It has been extremely helpful for both of our research groups and our research productivity. Having TACC resources helped us a great amount in continuing our research."

Over the past five years, the Atesins have used TACC supercomputers—initially Longhorn, Lonestar and Stampede, then Lonestar5 and now Stampede2—to study organometallic compounds: chemical compounds that contain bonds between a carbon atom of an organic molecule and a metal.
