Charles Jackels, Professor Emeritus

Dr. Jackels is a graduate of the University of Washington where he earned a Ph.D. in physical chemistry. For many years, Dr. Jackels’ research had focused primarily on application of large-scale computational science methods to chemical and physical problems involving the ground and excited state properties of small molecules, especially those that are of importance in Earth’s atmosphere. These studies employed large-scale CASSCF, configuration interaction, and perturbation theory calculations.

Research

Dr. Jackels’ recent scholarship has moved in an entirely different direction, involving collaboration in an international project to conduct service-based chemistry research for improvement of coffee quality with Nicaraguan small-holder coffee farmers. This project has involved field work on farms in Nicaragua and laboratory studies in both Seattle and Managua.
