The use of organocatalysts able to photocatalyze an organic reaction is a rapidly growing field. These photocatalyzed transformations are more environmentally sustainable with respect to the use of expensive/toxic metal-based (photo)catalysts. Based on the authors' extensive experience in photogenerated...

Chemical processes in many fields of science and technology, including combustion, atmospheric chemistry, environmental modelling, process engineering, and systems biology, can be described by detailed reaction mechanisms consisting of numerous reaction steps. This book describes methods for the...

“Atomi e dintorni” è una breve guida sulla storia e la scienza degli atomi. Vi si racconta, senza utilizzare incomprensibili equazioni matematiche, la loro nascita nel momento del Big Bang e la loro trasformazione da un tipo a un altro nel corso della loro evoluzione. Ripercorreremo gli studi...

This book covers applications of computational techniques to biological problems. These techniques are based by an ever-growing number of researchers with different scientific backgrounds - biologists, chemists, and physicists. The rapid development of molecular biology in recent years has...

In this unique illustrated book, PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, senior visiting scholars, and staff describe their personal experiences in working with the late Prof. Ahmed H. Zewail at Caltech. Their reminiscences provid

Comprehensive and up-to-date, this book focuses on the latest advances in the field, such as newly developed techniques, more environmentally benign processes, broadened scopes, and completely novel MCRs. In addition to carbene-promoted MCRs and frequently applied metal-catalyzed MCRs, it also covers...

This volume describes in detail the technique of molecular orbital calculations for biochemistry. The level of presentation will be accessible to biochemists, and biophysicists.

Some Problems of Chemical Kinetics and Reactivity discusses two types of explosion in detail. These two types are the thermal and chain explosion. Points are also given in the book about thermal theory on a quantitative basis. The book explains that the science of combustion develops as a special...

This book provides some insight into chemical defects in crystalline solids, focusing on the relationship between basic principles and device applications. It is concerned with the chemical, optical and electronic consequences of the presence of defects in crystals.

​In diesem Lehrbuch erhalten Studierende der Naturwissenschaften einen Einstieg in die Theorie und Methoden der Quantenmechanik. Besonderer Wert wird dabei auf eine didaktische Aufbereitung des Inhalts gelegt, wobei unter anderem sehr viele vollständig gerechnete Beispiele innerhalb der Kapitel,...

Das Buch vermittelt die Grundlagen der Spektroskopie und erarbeitet die erforderlichen theoretischen Hilfsmittel: Thermostatik, statistische Mechanik, Dichteoperatoren, Dynamik offener Quantensysteme, lineare Antworttheorie. In den Anwendungen finden sich u. a. die Blochschen Gleichungen und die Einsteinschen...

A membrane is considered the heart of every separation process because it is developed as a nanostructured/nanofunctionalized thin barrier that controls the exchange between two phases, not only by external forces and under the effect of fluid properties, but also through the intrinsic characteristics...

This book covers the broad subject of equilibrium statistical mechanics along with many advanced and modern topics such as nucleation, spinodal decomposition, inherent structures of liquids and liquid crystals. Unlike other books on the market, this comprehensive text not only deals with the primary...

The second edition of the Handbook of Metathesis, edited by Nobel Prize Winner Robert H. Grubbs and his team, is available as a 3 Volume set as well as individual volumes. Volume 1, edited by R. H. Grubbs together with A. G. Wenzel focusses on Catalyst Development and Mechanism. The...
