TY - BOOK AU - Carter,R.L. TI - Molecular symmetry and group theory SN - 0-471-14955-1 PY - 1998/// CY - Hoboken PB - John Wiley KW - Teoría molecular KW - Simetría (Física) KW - Grupos, Teoría de KW - Química inorgánica N2 - Written to give a thorough, but understandable introduction to molecular symmetry and group theory as applied to chemistry, this book will serve any chemistry student otherwise intimidated by theoretical problems. The author uses examples to reveal the power of symmetry arguments, details the evolution of ideas and also shows the centrality of both symmetry and group theory in understanding the arguments behind chemical structure and bonding. The book is ideal as an introductory course on group theory, or as a supplement to standard Inorganic or Physical Chemistry texts. Anticipates typical questions and points that are troubling to students Includes unique methods of approach and techniques developed by the author DE INTERES PARA: Undergraduate and Postgraduate Students of Chemistry. CONTENIDO: Fundamental Concepts; Representations of Groups; Techniques and Relationships for Chemical Applications; Symmetry and Chemical Bonding; Equations for Wave Functions; Vibrational Spectroscopy; Transition Metal Complexes; APPENDIX A: Point Group Character Tables; APPENDIX B: Correlation Tables; APPENDIX C: Normal Modes of Some Common Structures; APPENDIX D: Tanabe and Sugano Diagrams ER -
