Mean-field molecular dynamics derived from quantum mechanics

Quantum observables determine for instance the stress tensor and heat flux in fluid dynamics. In the talk I will show which properties are used for approximating such quantum observables by classical molecular dynamics and what is new when mean-field molecular dynamics improves the classical setting, using features of the Gibbs distribution.
