Vak
2012-2013

Actual course information

Photochemistry and spin-chemistry are strongly related. Their unification leads to a picture of chemistry occurring at energetic levels and ruled by selection rules. Phenomena as radical pairs and phosphorescence, triplet states and initial processes of photosynthesis and their relevance for general chemistry will be presented. Most mysterious problems in science, as magnetic field effects, will be explained.
