Join here!

There are plenty of WUs around (just now more than 49 000) only 33 teams (changing though), 185 accounts and 346 hosts.

Why not grab a top spot from the start? Join the testing and have fun ... ;)

I'm in. Thanks for keeping an eye on the project and letting us now. I'll update the main project list a little later.

Interesting spin offs:)P) this could have ,though I don't really understand what this project is about!

....proposed to realize "statistical computations for Spin dynamics" by means of distributed computing

Anyone care to explain that sentence?

They're looking for how a certain magnetic molecule shapes in 3D space at a certain temperature. They use the Monte Carlo routine, a random number generating mechanism - same is used by QMC. The spin dynamics they talk about is in what direction, with what speed and what torque that molecule will spin at a certain temperature.

The gfx have basically nothing to do with the real science that is done, they're just for show. The whole project was done as a master thesis and the gfx were not part of the thesis, so it's just a bonus.

Hope that helps a bit!
