Electronic structure and number theory

Meer over het boek

The series Structure and Bonding publishes critical reviews on research topics related to chemical structure and bonding, covering the entire Periodic Table and addressing issues associated with all elements. It emphasizes modern areas of structural and theoretical chemistry, including nanostructures, molecular electronics, designed molecular solids, surfaces, metal clusters, and supramolecular structures. The series focuses on physical and spectroscopic techniques for determining and modeling structures, prioritizing scientific results over technical details. It also explores the development of bonding models that clarify reactivity pathways and chemical process rates. Each volume is thematic, aiming to provide a comprehensive overview of emerging insights relevant to a broader scientific audience, whether in academia or industry. Reviews critically survey specific aspects of the topic and contextualize them within the volume. Significant developments from the last 5 to 10 years are highlighted with examples illustrating key principles. While not exhaustive in data, the coverage is conceptual, focusing on new principles to help non-specialists understand the presented data. Discussions on potential future research directions are encouraged.
