As computing power increases, a growing number of macroscopic phenomena are modeled at the molecular level. Consequently, new requirements are generated for the understanding of molecular dynamics in exotic conditions. This book illustrates the importance of detailed chemical dynamics and the role it plays in the phenomenology of a number of extreme environments. Each chapter addresses one or more extreme environments, outlines the associated chemical mechanisms of relevance, and then covers the leading edge science that elucidates the chemical coupling. The chapters exhibit a balance between ...

Porfiada acumuladora de datos simpáticos, cronista infatigable, en este libro Nora Bär nos guía a través de la cocina de los hallazgos científicos fundamentales del siglo XX, tomando como excusa diez incógnitas que la ciencia aún no logra resolver. Desde qué sucedió antes del Big Bang hasta por qué dormimos, su propuesta nos lleva a recorrer la historia de la ciencia occidental a partir de anécdotas desopilantes y datos curiosos, extraños azares y situaciones por momentos paranormales. De protagonistas, mujeres y hombres curiosos, creativos, inconformistas: casi artistas. Con...
