内容説明

This volume presents advances in the theory of chemical processes in the condensed phase. The approaches and applications studied in the book vary widely from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics, encompassing a range of systems from atom transfer reactions in simple fluids to charge transfer in water to biological systems. Each chapter presents an overview of a state-of-the-art technique by investigators who have been at the forefront of developing the approaches. The theoretical study of condensed phase chemistry is one of the most rapidly expanding fields of chemical physics, and this volume provides a snapshot of the forefront of research in this area.

内容説明

This book is meant to provide a window on the rapidly growing body of theoretical studies of condensed phase chemistry. A brief perusal of physical chemistry journals in the early to mid 1980's will find a large number of theor- ical papers devoted to 3-body gas phase chemical reaction dynamics. The recent history of theoretical chemistry has seen an explosion of progress in the devel- ment of methods to study similar properties of systems with Avogadro's number of particles. While the physical properties of condensed phase systems have long been principle targets of statistical mechanics, microscopic dynamic theories that start from detailed interaction potentials and build to first principles predictions of properties are now maturing at an extraordinary rate. The techniques in use range from classical studies of new Generalized Langevin Equations, semicl- sical studies for non-adiabatic chemical reactions in condensed phase, mixed quantum classical studies of biological systems, to fully quantum studies of m- els of condensed phase environments. These techniques have become sufficiently sophisticated, that theoretical prediction of behavior in actual condensed phase environments is now possible. and in some cases, theory is driving development in experiment. The authors and chapters in this book have been chosen to represent a wide variety in the current approaches to the theoretical chemistry of condensed phase systems. I have attempted a number of groupings of the chapters, but the - versity of the work always seems to frustrate entirely consistent grouping.
