Bøger i Understanding Chemical Reactivity serien

The so-called reaction path (RP) with respect to the potential energy or the Gibbs energy ("free enthalpy") is one of the most fundamental concepts in chemistry.

The escape from metastable states via noise-assisted hopping and/or tunneling is pivotal to many scientific disciplines. This title surveys developments in the rate theory of both equilibrium and nonequilibrium processes.

Recent evolution has split Rydberg spectroscopy into two apparently distinct fields: the one concerns the low (n=3-5) Rydberg states, the other the very high (typically n>150) Rydberg states.

Entropy and entropy generation play essential roles in our understanding of many diverse phenomena ranging from cosmology to biology.
