Wiley Research in Chemical Kinetics Volume IV: v.4

This is the fourth volume in a new series, which aims to publish authoritative review articles on a wide range of exciting and contemporary topics in gas and condensed phase kinetics. The reviews contained in this volume are concise, topical accounts of specific research written by acknowledged experts. The authors summarize their latest work and place it in a general context. The prime strength of the volume is the quality of its contributions. All the article topics were commissioned by the editors, both well known in their research fields: Dr Compton in condensed–phase kinetics and Dr Hancock in gas–phase kinetics. From the Back Cover This is the fourth volume of a series (formerly published by Elsevier), which publishes authoritative review articles on a wide range of exciting and contemporary topics in gas and condensed phase kinetics – providing a state–of–the–art summary of recent advances in the field. The reviews contained in this volume are concise, topical accounts of specific research written by acknowledged experts. The authors summarize their latest work and place it in a general context. Particular strengths of the volume are the quality of the contributions – all the articles are commissioned by the editors, their topicality, and the rapid publication realised. The editors are both well known in their fields and act in a complementary manner, Dr Compton′s area of research being condensed phase kinetics, Dr Hancock′s gas phase kinetics.
