Annual review of physical chemistry; v.57, 2006.0824310578 Annual review of physical chemistry; v.57, 2006. Ed. by Stephen R. Leone et al. Annual Reviews 2006 691 pages $188.00 Hardcover QD453 The 21 articles in the 2006 edition of this annual series summarize recent research findings in atmospheric and aerosol science Aerosol Science Aerosols are characterized by a particle size distribution function (PSD). Most natural aerosols have a lognormal distribution. Aerosol formation and growth consists of 3 processes:
Addition of a discrete amount of energy to a system that changes it usually from a state of lowest energy (ground state) to one of higher energy (excited state). For example, in a hydrogen atom, an excitation energy of 10. of vibrational modes in metallic nanoparticles, nonlinear A system in which the output is not a uniform relationship to the input. nonlinear - (Scientific computation) A property of a system whose output is not proportional to its input. response methods for structured environments, optical microscopy and spectroscopy with pointed probes, and the connections between gaseous gas·e·ous adj. 1. Of, relating to, or existing as a gas. 2. Full of or containing gas; gassy. phase and liquid phase dynamics. Each review cites 80 or more references. ([c]20062005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR) |
