Never find yourself missing your point-group-symmetry Character Tables from group theory again. The Character Table Viewer app is designed to offer students of Inorganic Chemistry, Quantum Mechanics, and Group Theory ‘at your fingertips’ access to more than 45 Character Tables for the most chemically relevant Symmetry Point Groups. The tables are easy to find and access with an intuitive and simple interface. They are crisp to read and contain all irreducible representations as well as classifications of relevant linear and binary functions important for understanding things like bonding or vibrational motions. You can customize a list of the ones you most commonly use. You can zoom in on the tables and even compare two side-by-side. This is a ‘must have’ app for advanced chemistry and physics students and researchers.
