• solvents, and other multi-scale phenomena. In this review, however, we will concentrate on quantum-chemical modeling at the nanoscale. III.1 The Hamiltonian and the many-body problem The greatest challenge associated with modeling NCs is the huge number of atoms required for the model to meet the sizes of
