Riassunto

Contains proceedings of a fall 1998 study institute held in Il Ciocco, Italy, illustrating new developments in the field of high pressure science. Many papers overview the different subfields of high pressure research, and lectures cover main areas of high pressure applications to materials science, condensed matter physics, chemistry, and biochemistry. A few contributed papers offer more specialized aspects of various high pressure studies. Specific topics in a section on physical aspects and materials science include high- pressure Raman scattering studies of fluids, pressure effects on non- linear optical phenomena, and experimental techniques in the diamond anvil cell. A section on chemical, biophysical, and biomedical aspects covers areas such as free-radical polymerization under high pressure, and high hydrostatic pressure and enzymology. The editors teach chemistry at the University of Dortmund, Germany, and the University of Illinois. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
