This text provides a uniform and consistent approach to diversified
problems encountered in the study of dynamical processes in
condensed phase molecular systems. Given the broad
interdisciplinary aspect of this subject, the book focuses on three
themes: coverage of needed background material, in-depth
introduction of methodologies, and analysis of several key
applications. The uniform approach and common language used in all
discussions help to develop general understanding and insight on
condensed phases chemical dynamics. The applications discussed are
among the most fundamental processes that underlie physical,
chemical and biological phenomena in complex systems.
The first part of the book starts with a general review of basic
mathematical and physical methods (Chapter 1) and a few
introductory chapters on quantum dynamics (Chapter 2), interaction
of radiation and matter (Chapter 3) and basic properties of solids
(chapter 4) and liquids (Chapter 5). In the second part the text
embarks on a broad coverage of the main methodological approaches.
The central role of classical and quantum time correlation
functions is emphasized in Chapter 6. The presentation of dynamical
phenomena in complex systems as stochastic processes is discussed
in Chapters 7 and 8. The basic theory of quantum relaxation
phenomena is developed in Chapter 9, and carried on in Chapter 10
which introduces the density operator, its quantum evolution in
Liouville space, and the concept of reduced equation of motions.
The methodological part concludes with a discussion of linear
response theory in Chapter 11, and of the spin-boson model in
chapter 12. The third part of the book applies the methodologies
introducedearlier to several fundamental processes that underlie
much of the dynamical behaviour of condensed phase molecular
systems. Vibrational relaxation and vibrational energy transfer
(Chapter 13), Barrier crossing and diffusion controlled reactions
(Chapter 14), solvation dynamics (Chapter 15), electron transfer in
bulk solvents (Chapter 16) and at electrodes/electrolyte and
metal/molecule/metal junctions (Chapter 17), and several processes
pertaining to molecular spectroscopy in condensed phases (Chapter
18) are the main subjects discussed in this part.
