Description: Chemical physicists at JILA probe the structure and dynamics of ions, free radicals, cluster ions, and molecules; seek to understand the quantum mechanical behavior of chemical reactions; study the process of solvation; and investigate single entities such as quantum dots. Experimental chemical physicists use a variety of laser-based techniques to better understand hydrogen bonding, electron transfer, the formation and dissolution of chemical bonds, chemical reactions, and the formation of nanoparticles. Theoretical physicists create simulations of the molecular processes probed in these experiments to both explain results and guide future investigations. The goals of chemical physics research at JILA include understanding chemical structures and reactions at the quantum mechanical level, elucidating the structure and reactivity of gas phase ions, and discovering new approaches to explaining chemical physics.
