In a friendly, easy-to-understand style, this new book invites the reader to discover by example the power of symmetry arguments for understanding theoretical problems in chemistry.
This second edition contains a new chapter on the projection operator method. This is used to calculate the form of the normal modes of vibration of a molecule and the normalised wave functions of hybrid orbitals or molecular orbitals.
The mathematical fundamentals of molecular symmetry and group theory are comprehensibly described in this book.
This comprehensive text provides readers with a thorough introduction to molecular symmetry and group theory as applied to chemical problems.
The mathematical fundamentals of molecular symmetry and group theory are comprehensibly described in this book.
Different approaches, evaluations and methodologies on molecular symmetry and group theory have been included herein. This book is a complete source of knowledge on the present status of this important field.
