Books in the Studies in Physical and Theoretical Chemistry series

Presents the theoretical details of processes such as: vibrational absorption, Raman scattering, vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and Raman optical activity (VROA). This work includes a comprehensive survey of VCD and VROA applications. It also covers vibrational circular dichroism and vibrational Raman optical activity.

Deals with solid-state decompositions and the properties of solids that control reactivities. This book also surveys groups of reactions classified by similarities of chemical composition.

During the twentieth century, radiation chemistry emerged as a multi-faceted field encompassing all areas of science. Radiation chemical techniques are being routinely used not only by chemists but also by biologists, and polymer scientists. This title presents an overall view of the different aspects of the subject.
