Dear Colleagues,
We are organizing a symposium entitled “Imaging in Chemical Dynamics” at
the 218th national meeting of the American Chemical Society in New
Orleans, LA from August 22-26, 1999. Imaging methods have had a
profound impact on the study of chemical dynamics in recent years, and
the field is now in a state of explosive growth in applications and
methodology. Applications of imaging techniques to photodissociation,
inelastic and reactive scattering, photoionization and photodetachment
processes will be among the topics addressed by the invited speakers.
It is hoped that this symposium will serve to document
'state-of-the-art' imaging applications in chemical dynamics, showcasing
the growth in the field and the range of the experimental possibilities.
In this announcement, we would like to encourage submission of
contributed talks and posters to highlight some of the newest results in
this symposium. We hope to put together a book documenting the current
state of the field in the ACS symposium series and look forward to your
contribution.
The invited speakers include those appended below. The symposium will
include a joint half-day session with the Symposium on "Electronically
Nonadiabatic Processes in Gaseous, Cluster and Condensed Media"
organized by Laurie Butler and Don Truhlar. Please submit your abstract
electronically by April 1, 1999. The ACS is now requiring electronic
submission for the New Orleans meeting. The electronic submission Web
page will be ready by March 8; it may be accessed at
