Static, Kinematic and Dynamic Aspecys
of Crystal and Molecular Structure
Directors:
H.-B. Buergi, Bern and Jack D. Dunitz, Zurich
|
This Course will attempt to review past achievements, present projects and future goals in the realm of crystal and molecular structure studies by diffraction and spectroscopic methods. The title is intended to indicate and emphasis on the description and understanding of atomic motion in molecules and crystals, with relevance to physical properties , chemical reactivity and phase transformations. |
