Opis

The Advances in Chemical Physics series--the cutting edge of research in chemical physics The Advances in Chemical Physics series provides the chemical physics and physical chemistry fields with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in every area of the discipline. Filled with cutting-edge research reported in a cohesive manner not found elsewhere in the literature, each volume of the Advances in Chemical Physics series presents contributions from internationally renowned chemists and serves as the perfect supplement to any advanced graduate class devoted to the study of chemical physics. This volume explores:

• Multidimensional Incoherent Time-Resolved Spectroscopy and Complex Kinetics (Mark A. Berg)
• Complex Multiconfigurational Self-Consistent Field-Based Methods to Investigate Electron-Atom/Molecule Scattering Resonances (Kousik Samanta and Danny L. Yeager)
• Determination of Molecular Orientational Correlations in Disordered Systems from Diffraction Data (Szilvia Pothoczki, Laszlo Temleitner, and Laszlo Pusztai)
• Recent Advances in Studying Mechanical Properties of DNA (Reza Vafabakhsh, Kyung Suk Lee, and Taekjip Ha)
• Viscoelastic Subdiffusion: Generalized Langevin Equation Approach (Igor Goychuk)
• Efficient and Unbiased Sampling of Biomolecular Systems in the Canonical Ensemble: A Review of Self-Guided Langevin Dynamics (Xiongwu Wu, Ana Damjanovic, and Bernard R. Brooks)
