The Advances in Chemical Physics series--the cutting edge ofresearch in chemical physics
The Advances in Chemical Physics series provides the chemicalphysics field with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluationsof advances in every area of the discipline. Filled withcutting-edge research reported in a cohesive manner not foundelsewhere in the literature, each volume of the Advances inChemical Physics series serves as the perfect supplement to anyadvanced graduate class devoted to the study of chemicalphysics.
This volume explores:
* Quantum Dynamical Resonances in Chemical Reactions: From A + BCto Polyatomic Systems (Kopin Liu)
* The Multiscale Coarse-Graining Method (Lanyuan Lu and Gregory A.Voth)
* Molecular Solvation Dynamics from Inelastic X-ray ScatteringMeasurements (R.H. Coridan and G.C.L. Wong)
* Polymers Under Confinement (M. Muthukumar)
* Computational Studies of the Properties of DNA-linkedNanomaterials (One-Sun Lee and George C. Schatz)
* Nanopores: Single-Molecule Sensors of Nucleic Acid BasedComplexes (Amit Meller)
