Because of its unique properties, water drives many natural and biological processes. While
a detailed understanding of its precise role is still being unravelled, it is clear that the …

Few of us can any longer keep up with the flood of scientific literature: even in specialized
subfields. Any attempt to do more and be broadly educated with respect to a large domain of …

The wave vector dependent longitudinal static dielectric function ε k of water is calculated in
a broad k range by means of molecular dynamics simulation for a central force model and is …

Electron transfer between an electrode and a redox couple separated from the electrode by
an organic film is analyzed using a local dielectric continuum model. The solvent …

Rate constants of chemical reactions in solutions are found to vary over a wide range.
Although many chemical processes occur with extreme rapidity, with time constants in the …

In this chapter our main emphasis is on homogeneous solutions. Biological applications are
mentioned briefly. After summarizing the Golden Rule results, we focus on the effects of …

Water solvation dynamics of polar species both in the bulk and in the hydration layers of
proteins and self-organized assemblies have been discussed. Recent studies have …

The longitudinal frequency and wave-vector dependent complex dielectric response
function χ (k, ω)= 1− 1/ε (k, ω) is calculated in a broad range of k values by means of …

A unified treatment of oscillatory and monotonic exponential decays of interactions in
electrolytes is displayed, which highlights the role of dielectric response of the fluid in terms …

Three-dimensional implementations of liquid-state theories offer an efficient alternative to
computer simulations for the atomic-level description of aqueous solutions in complex …
