The limitations of quantum chemistry in this still early era motivated Fernand to embrace atomistic modeling, a bold move and a possibly disappointing perspective to his mentors that he met again when returning to Toulouse at the end of the 1980s. Published as part of the special collection of articles "Festschrift in honor of Fernand Spiegelman". His expertise in quantum chemistry has also kept recognition as he maintained fruitful collaborations in the related areas of cold atoms and molecules but also in alkali spectral broadenings in dense astrophysical environments.
