Senior🎓
Top SchoolAlexander White is a Staff Scientist at Los Alamos National Laboratory with 8+ years driving theoretical and computational materials research from quantum chemistry to time-dependent electronic dynamics and quantum transport. He leads multiple LANL projects and is the principal developer of SHRED, an open tool for electronic-structure and dynamics spanning conditions from ambient materials to hot dense plasmas. Trained as a PhD chemist at UC San Diego, he blends deep theoretical rigor with practical code development to tackle non-adiabatic and time-dependent DFT challenges in nanomaterials, energetic materials, and warm dense matter. Based in Santa Fe, he thrives at the intersection of high-performance computation and fundamental physics, often translating complex many-body problems into usable software for the broader community.
