Description
Advanced Topics in Theoretical Chemical Physics is a collection of 20 selected papers from the scientific presentations of the Fourth Congress of the International Society for Theoretical Chemical Physics (ISTCP) held at Marly-le-Roi, France, in July 2002.
Advanced Topics in Theoretical Chemical Physics encompasses a broad spectrum in which scientists place special emphasis on theoretical methods in chemistry and physics. The chapters in the book are divided into five sections:
I: Advances Chemical Thermodynamics
II: Electronic Structure of Molecular Systems
III: Molecular Interaction and Dynamics
IV: Condensed Matter
V: Playing with Numbers
This book is an invaluable resource for all academics and researchers interested in theoretical, quantum or statistical, chemical physics or physical chemistry. It presents a selection of some of the most advanced methods, results and insights in this exciting area.
