State-Selected and State-to-State Ion-Molecule Reaction Dynamics Part 1: Experiment Edited by Cheuk-Yiu Ng and Michael Baer "It contains a wealth of technical detail and experience and is a ‘must’ for anyone using, or contemplating using, position-sensitive detection methods." —Chemical Engineering Science Illustrated with eight in-depth studies, which shed light on the key experimental work being done in the field today, Part 1 of State-Selected and State-to-State Ion-Molecule Reaction Dynamics is a well-organized look at the experimental side of this highly useful and emerging chemical specialty. Part 1’s progressive coverage includes: a comprehensive review of the theory and application of inhomogeneous rf fields; the application of multiphoton ionization for the preparation of reactant ion states; the conceptual and practical aspects of a multicoincidence technique; and the experimental results obtained using the photoionization and differential reactivity methods. 1992 (0-471-53258-4) 704 pp. State-Selected and State-to-State Ion-Molecule Reaction Dynamics Part 2: Theory Edited by Michael Baer and Cheuk-Yiu Ng Using clear illustrative examples culled from up-to-date research, Part 2: Theory makes the theory fundamental to state-to-state reaction dynamics not only understandable, but relevant to every day experimental work. Focusing exclusively on the theory of charge transfer processes during an atom (ion)-molecule (ion) collision, the book examines the different attitudes for treating the potential energy surfaces which govern the motion of the interacting atoms and ions and the reaction dynamics of these particles. The book also uses a variety of approaches, from the pure quantum mechanical approach, various semiclassical approaches to several statistical approaches, to address key issues in reaction dynamics. 1992 (0-471-53263-0) 576 pp. Advances in Chemical Physics Volume 84 Edited by I. Prigogine and Stuart A. Rice Volume 84 of this heralded series offers readers a detailed, up-to-date look at a host of important issues in chemical physics, including: the collisional time-correlation function approach to molecular energy transfer; molecular theory of liquid phase vibrational energy relaxation; electron degradation in molecular substances; and simulation of nonlinear electronic spectroscopy in the condensed phase. 1993 (0-471-58726-5) 560 pp.
