| Publisher Description: The study of gas-phase molecular reaction dynamics has long proved to be a central and fruitful field of research, with impact in many areas of science, for both experimental and theoretical physical chemists/chemical physicists. While further advances in the characterization of gas-phase reactions are actively pursued, the methods and concepts developed so far are also the basis of the molecular approach of investigations of reaction dynamics at interfaces (gas-liquid and gas-solid) and in condensed phases. Work in several labs has been focused on developing a theoretical understanding of this ultrafast dynamics. The hope is to discern the molecular mechanisms of events such as solvation and vibrational relaxation - the elementary steps that determine the course of chemical reactions in liquids. This Discussion is particularly timely because of the exciting developments of the last decade in the various areas and of the prospect that they are generating. Because of the broad topic area which underlies what is perhaps the core of chemistry, namely chemical reactivity, a large audience is anticipated. The Scientific Committee warmly invites you to take part in the Discussion and looks forward to welcoming you to Assisi. |
