Femtomole adsorption calorimetry on single-crystal surfaces
Article Abstract:
The innovative single crystal adsorption calorimeter (SCAC) can be utilized in the measurement of heat for molecules that inversely adsorb, in the measurement of energy difference between structural phases of solid surface and in analysis of surface properties. The instrument, which is sensitive to femtomole quantities of reacting gas, can also be useful in making theoretical calculations of potential-energy surfaces for chemisorption. The development of SCAC can be used in obtaining spectroscopic data which cannot be provided by conventional calorimetric instruments.

Constructing multidimensional molecular potential energy surfaces from ab initio data
Article Abstract:
This article describes the reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) method in constructing global potential energy surfaces (PES) and one-dimensional kernels leading to multidimensional kernels. Analysis of polyatomic systems based on RKHS PESs is presented.
