Evolution dynamics

An introduction to the non-covalent forces operating in stable ionic and molecular aggregates will be presented in Section 2. A brief description of the experimental methodologies employed in the production, detection, and characterization of clusters will be given in Section 3. The available experimental evidence on the structure of chiral clusters and their intrinsic stability, reactivity, and evolution dynamics will be presented and discussed in Sections 4 (molecular clusters) and 5 (ionic clusters). In the same sections, the experimental data will be interpreted in the light of the available theoretical evidence. Finally, some concluding remarks will be expressed in Section 6. 

Noncovalent isomeric 2-butyl ion/toluene complexes. As pointed out in the previous section, key features of ion-neutral complexes, such as the mutual orientation of their components and their evolution dynamics, usually escape precise determination because of intrinsic limitations of the available experimental methodologies. This lack of information is particularly unsatisfactory since, in principle, the nature and the dynamics of an ion-neutral complex may determine its evolution to products and, thus, the reaction selectivity.

Rod growth dynamics also depend upon the identity of the phosphonic acid. The effectiveness of the phosphonic acid in promoting rod growth depends critically on its steric bulk, or the length of its alkyl chain. Shorter-chain phosphonic acids, such as HPA, more effectively promote rod growth compared to longer-chain phosphonic acids, such as tetradecylphosphonic acid (TOPA). Combinations of longer-and shorter-chain phosphonic acids can be used to readily tune rod aspect ratios and control shape evolution dynamics. 

Cavitation evolution dynamics in cylindrical liquid volumes under the axial loading by an exploding wire is studied experimentally aind theoretically. The method of dynamic head registration is used to study the structure of two phase flows formed and evaluate characteristic time of cavitation liquid fracture. As a result of numerical simulation of the experiments, which was performed in a single-velocity two-phase model approximation, the energy transformation mechanism is determined at shock interaction with a free real liquid surface. A two-phase model is suggested to describe the irreversible development of a cavitation zone formed as a result of the mentioned interaction. The model is based on practically instantaneous tensile--stress relaxation in a centered rarefaction wave and further inertial evolution of the process.

Scale-invariant structures originating from growth processes have been found to be extremely widespread in nature. This observation have led to a number of careful experiments, and various growth models have been suggested to describe the fractal outcome but why did they become fractal in the first place To answer this question we must understand the spatio-temporal evolution. Dynamically, the interface is observed to be unstable, and the system eventually reaches a statistically stationary state where a rich ramified pattern is created. A major observation is that this state can be described by power laws - the pattern becomes scale invariant. 

Electron spectroscopic observations confirm the creation and evolution dynamics of the valence states during chemisorption. In addition to the bonding states, the nonbonding lone pair of the adsorbate, the antibonding dipole states of the host, and the electron hole of the host atom can never be neglected, which modify the physical properties of a chemisporbed surface. 

The reader is encouraged to repeat this example and choose the movie option to see the temperature profile evolutions dynamically. It should be noted that the rate of evolution of the temperature profile on the screen is not the same as that of the heat transfer process itself.
