Download or read book Chemical Physics Research Trends written by Samuel V. Arnold and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2007 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chemical physics and physical chemistry are closely related fields of study. Together they are distinguished from other disciplines by the incredible range of problems addressed by their practitioners. An effective physical chemist or chemical physicist is a "jack-of-all-trades", able to apply the principles and techniques of the field to everything from high-tech materials to biology. Just as the fields of chemistry and physics have expanded, so have chemical physics subject areas, which include polymers, materials, surfaces/interfaces, and biological macromolecules, along with the traditional small molecule and condensed phase systems. This book gathers important research from around the world.
