Opis

The study of the interaction of molecules with surfaces and interfaces is of great importance for the understanding of adsorption and catalysis on solid surfaces, the complex properties of molecules on fluid interfaces and the relationship between structure and functionality in macromolecular biological systens. It is the aim of this volume to present and analyse in a comprehensive and accesible way the methodical achievements and the recent proress in this field. The broadness of both scope and selection of the topics should help in particular non-expert readers to become familiar with this exciting field of research.
